"Gainward (UK) Limited is now in liquidation"

[digitalwanderer]

Ripped pretty much from a story on Elite Bastards with a bit of a Warp2search post thrown in:

If you go to Gainward (UK)'s homepage you'll find this:

<center>Gainward (UK) Limited is now in liquidation.

Outstanding creditors of the company should contact the Official Receivers Office quoting reference "1984 of 2004"

Official Receivers Office

2nd Floor
Kings Wharf

Thanks to Warp2search

Damn it, another one gone? I thought after they closed Gainward US they were moving their center of operations to Gainward(UK)....are they going somewhere now or are they gone?

Who, what, where, when, why? :?

Is Gainward going to continue? Didn't they just announce a 512MB card or something? :|

Their Business Development Manager left to work for HEXUS in a similar role.

Just because Gainward's UK operation has shut down/died a horrible death, doesn't mean that their worldwide operation will go the same way. I guess they run their different branches as somewhat separate units, in the same way as Creative Labs do.

I remember reading some articles on Inq about the probable 'end' of Gainward, so this doesn't surprise me.

Well I guess this was only a surprise to me then, huh?
