Title: Did Hercules go under?
Post by: Mickey1992 on April 29, 2002, 10:54:05 AM

Anyone know if Hercules went under?  http://www.hercules.com is defunct.  I can't find any news stories about it.

They were bought by Guillemot some time ago.
They still make some nice cards under the Hercules name.
I think they are now making cards with the Radeon chipset.

How could I forget about that.

Yes, they make some KICKASS sound cards. I love my Hercules Game Theater XP. Highly recomended.

Hercules is still kicking

Thanks.  I went to http://www.Guillemot.com and got the message "Hello, We regret to inform you that due to a technical problem Hercules sites are temporarily unavailable."

http://www.hercules.com has been down for three days.  Seems like one heck of a technical problem for a company's web site to be down that long.
