S3 Joins Display Group
Intel pats S3 on the back and pulls it into technology spec group.
Since the announcement of its Savage4 product, chipmaker S3 has been gaining more and more ground on the competition. Intel has given the company a vote of confidence by sponsoring the company for inclusion in the new Digital Display Working Group (DDWG), an organization led by computing powerhouses like Intel, Compaq, Fujitsu, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, NEC, and Silicon Image.
The group's focus is to help define industry requirements for digital connectivity for high-powered PC and digital displays. A complete DDWG specification is due in the first quarter, 1999.
In other news, S3 announced that PC manufacturer Gainward Co. Ltd. granted the company a design win for its Savage4.
