Abit Might Exit The Motherboard Market

Second-tier motherboard maker Abit is reportedly considering exiting the motherboard market after evaluating its shipment performance of Intel 4 series motherboards, according to channel sources. Abit, however, maintains it does not know anything about the speculation and will continue to develop motherboard products. Abit was the first manufacturer to support Legit Reviews, so we wish them the best and that the upcoming Intel chipset series does well for them.

Abit has failed to meet the expectations of parent company Universal Scientific Industrial (USI) in its ability to compete with fellow second-teir makers in terms of performance, or first-tier makers in terms of pricing in the mid-range and entry-level market, and so the company is evaluating whether to quit the market and start developing other products for the Abit brand, noted the sources. In 2007, Abit shipped 2-3 million motherboards and had set a goal to ship six million units in 2008. However, the company's current shipments have actually decreased.

É uma pena se isto acontecer, porque a Abit ultimamente tem lançado boas motherboard's.

Universal abit representatives today said that the company is not going to leave the motherboard arena and DigiTimes rumors are not to be believed. Thore Welling, Universal ABIT Global Marketing Director pointed out:abit is a well established and strong brand within the enthusiast and high-end motherboard and components industry. In fact, particularly over the past 12 months we have been able to considerably increase market share not only in traditional markets such as Western Europe, but even stronger so in emerging markets such as East Asia as well as in the Middle East. Therefore, the broadening of our product lines into the Consumer Electronics (digital photo frames with integrated photo printer [FunFab] and MIDs) segment represents a stronger commitment to the overall brand and the continuation of our motherboard concept into other products. abit stays committed to motherboards and has a broad lineup of motherboards ready, as you will see in during Computex.Source: OCWORKBENCH (http://my.ocworkbench.com/bbs/showthread.php?p=431742#post431742)
