Phase5 files for bankruptcy : Comment 24 of 41 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Ben Hermans/Hyperion on 08-Feb-2000 23:00 GMT | You're fooling yourself if you are thinking P5 went under because of G4 shortages or shortages of certain parts.
The truth is that P5 never did serious work on their G3/G4 cards. They always were much better at hyping their stuff than actually producing it (on time).
Some of the claims made in their manuals/on their site about memory performance or bandwith of their graphics boards was extremely misleading to the point that one could effectively sue them for misleading advertisements.
I put my hopes on Metabox and Escena now.
As I have for the last 5 months. |
