Hi, 

I seem to recall in the early 90's Cyrix chips were less expensive that
Intel and AMD. 

I also seem to recall there was a bug in their math logic.  I do not
recall hearing of Cyrix after that.  

Anyone recall what happened?  I did some research and found the coma bug
-- however I do not think that was it.   

Thinking about what Intel is going through made me think of Cyrix. 

I would not doubt Intel goes out of business and comes back as something
else.
