Not shocking, Im kind of ok with most of this.

Feeling a bit bumbed about this though:

> Additionally, Intel will cancel its upcoming Lancaster Sound GPU for its Flex Series of data center GPUs. These GPUs are designed for lower-intensity work, like media encoding. Instead of pushing forward with Lancaster Sound, Intel will focus on the next-gen Melville Sound products for the Flex series.

That was such a cool product. Heck yes give me a low-power card with a bunch of encoders (& hopefully some modestly ok-ish VDI)! Hopefully the next go is great.

It does seem perhaps a bit smart, on all these fronts, to just not release, rather than let quite mediocre products get out there & underwhelm.

Singing, "I want, I want more." to the old sea ditty, "Row, row, row your boat." as a short halflife disposable product then becoming ewaste.
