>INTERNET--(esecurities.W)--May 14, 1999 - (E3) [Talk n' Play >alliance WON.net's] Dynamix in pact with voice chat software Roger Wilco. Well, surprise surpise. I thought if they could land an integration deal with anyone it would be with Sierra (Owner of both Dynamix division and Won.net). This of course forges a difficult to break relationship across the entire Sierra line (TMSR would need to outdo their technology) Considering Hausmann and Co's, incredibly slow speed - he was talking about adding features that these guys already have had for months 6 months from now, I wouldn't count on it. So that marks off Sierra, G.O.D. Novalogic, and Interplay. Next! On a side note, won.net released another press release with no mention of TMSR, showing once again the seperation between what Hausmann touts, and what is reality. Thrustmaster has moved from getting slaughtered in a high competition, low margin area, to getting run over by a handful of startup people.
