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.
