After losing ground since February BRCM shares rally a little today after the news and the implications come out. Keep in mind that Broadcom still enjoys the dominant market share in set-tops and DSL, however. So calling Intel the winner in networking chips is too premature by a long shot. Intel should have acquired Broadcom and it would have had the industry leading position in both PC and network chips. Will someone else take out BRCM now? I can't imagine IBM, Cisco or Motorola letting Intel own this space also. Broadcom looks like a target if these three firms have their druthers. If not then I think Broadcom must get very aggressive -- a huge battle is brewing. ZeroLogik: Reviews & Recommendations Archives::
