Trident sell Graphics Chip division to SiS

Yesterday Trident Microsystems, Inc. announced that it has pulled out of the graphics chips market after less than a year and will focus on its digital TV & set-top-box business. The graphics division was sold to SIS and will be merged with SIS’s graphics subsidiary XGI (Xabre Graphics, Inc.). The details haven’t been released, but SiS said the move was to help it in notebook graphics.
