I did a little research and this is the latest item I
could come up with:
http://www.newsbytes.com/news/98/112009.html
Looks like the company was sold off piecemeal. Micropolis was bought by
Singapore Technologies (still in business) in 1996, and then ST filed
bankruptcy in late 1997. Micropolis was one of the casualties.
This only involves the actual hardware asset auctions.
This doesn't answer the question: what happened to the Micropolis's
and the Thai D.D.'s IP? (intellectal property) and their patents?
These are the real meat of a business, and somebody had to report
upon this.
