Roy Taylor, joint managing director of VML UK, would not comment today on whether his company had been appointed as an agent for Nvidia. Rumours circulating in the channel indicated that Taylor, and his partner John Byrne, had scooped up the Nvidia franchise which means that it has yet another string to its bow. Three weeks ago, VML scooped up a deal with x.86 chip clone Cyrix to sell its products in the UK. Taylor maintained that its relationship with Vanguard Microelectronics, a Taiwanese manufacturer of DRAM, was still sound. His company, he said, would continue to service that market. ®
