Redpill me on these companies.
Do they have the potential to become big players in the industry?

MediaTek is Taiwanese.

big players no but influential in budget market yes
Nathan Perry
mediatek is fucking everywhere

Asus C201 (chromebook) has a Rockchip made ARM CPU and is currently one of the few fully librebootable machines you can get.
Sebastian Collins
The only x86 manufacture besides Intel and AMD.
Their selling point used to be low powered x86 CPUs.
Isaac Harris
All chinks.
Evan Powell
China belongs to Taiwan.
Julian Roberts
Pretty sure at least one of them is a common GPL violator. That's what you're getting at?
Heh, mainlanders and islers chinks at it again.
So where is the new Xsomething CPU they promised?
That said, Via CPUs and chipsets were among the worst supported with Linux.

Taiwan/China dispute is stupid but let's just say MediaTek should be more vulnerable to US back doors.
Logan Brown
At least we won't have to worry about whether or not there are hardware backdoors in our chips because with these we can be 100% sure there are.
Gabriel Wright
Transmeta. Close enough.
Nolan Campbell
Their design team is in Texas. Botnet.
Isaac Jenkins
VIA chipsets were comfy as fuck. I still remember my Pentium 3 rig with them, lasted more than a decade. Good times.
It's shame they lost this market and now PC are essentially fully intel or fully amd.
Nathaniel Cruz
What kind of technology VIA IGPUs use?
Jack Sanchez
Surely they could expand their operation to more than a shadow of Realtek, no? Their only relevance as of now is to second-grade wireless ICs.
