Is Cyrix doomed?

CPU Site heeft een artikel geschreven over het nieuws dat Cyrix uit de PC processor business stapt. Is Cyrix Doomed?

Well... after a huge loss of money, the end of the agreement with IBM and the exit from NSC, Cyrix is in a nasty position. Further, new companies like IDT WinChip and Rise are both also aiming at the low end PC market, bringing more competition. No, the future does not look bright at all. Though, Cyrix has many, highly capable, professional engineers and a lot of knowlegde and experience. Cayenne and Jalapeno are good ingredients to survive this crisis, but it takes more than that... Maybe there are other companies, like IBM, that would obtain Cyrix and continue their line of (improved!) processors. Cyrix did not deserve the bad name it has nowadays, but it needs to invest in new technologies to maintain their third place on the market. It is time to move on to a new generation of Cyrix processors. And to release new frequencies soon... It Cyrix remains silent, it IS doomed...
