Can someone create an equivalent of the Google Graveyard but for dumb Intel acquisitions?
- Zigurd 6y agoI nominate Spectron. It died twice I think: the corpse was sold to Dialogic, then Dialogic was bought by Intel later on, and then there was more spinoff/merger pinball. The original idea was for Intel to wrest control of multimedia from Microsoft and create an Intel controlled multimedia subsystem. They didn't actually acquire Dragon for the speech recognition part, but Dragon's fate was even worse.
