Yesterday we reported that the Taiwanese motherboard manufacturer A-bit may shut down after Intel’s next generation chipset launch. Well, A-bit’s Global Marketing Director, Thore Welling quoted in response to the rumor “A-bit 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. A-bit stays committed to motherboards and has a broad lineup of motherboards ready, as you will see in during Computex.”

Well, this is sigh to sore eyes. A-bit makes some high grade motherboard like X38 Quad GT, IP35 E and some more who already won may awards and they all compete with every other motherboard manufacturer in the market head to head. Taking such a step would definitely unwanted step.
