Although not strictly cs news it does relate to those CS'ers like myself looking to purchase a top of the range graphic card over the next few months that will solve their problems for several years to come. Here's the press release explaining Visiontek's decision to expand in europe.

VisionTek, a leading provider of advanced graphics and memory solutions for PCs, has expanded its operations to Europe with the opening of a new office in the United Kingdom.

Leveraging the success of its top-selling Xtasy™ video cards, VisionTek has established a new European sales and marketing headquarters in Hammersmith, London.

“We are delighted to bring VisionTek’s best-selling graphics cards to customers throughout the European community," says John Gunn, President of VisionTek’s Consumer Products Division. “Europe is becoming a truly unified market, one that presents fertile ground for growth in the consumer PC market.

"On the heels of reaching the No. 1 spot in U.S. retail market share, we are prepared for an aggressive push into the European market with a strong brand, exceptional products based on NVIDIA® graphics technology and a talented regional team.”

By establishing a foothold in Europe, VisionTek will also extend the reach of its successful relationship with NVIDIA Corporation, the global leader in advanced graphics and multimedia processing technology for the consumer and professional computing markets.

"NVIDIA is very excited to support VisionTek's entry into the European market," says Joe Gorfinkle, General Manager of NVIDIA Europe. "As our channel strengthens and grows across Europe, it is important that we work with the key players in the market – companies that not only have great products, but also an ambitious business model that matches our own. Fresh from their retail success in the US, we are confident that VisionTek will be a key partner in 2002."
