Classify this as rumor right now, but from the sounds of it, VoodooPC might not be around much longer.

It’s a pity too ’cause Voodoo just released the amazing Envy 133 3.4 lb Apple Air-killer and the $7k Omen desktop so this decision is probably coming from the bean counters. If the division’s wares aren’t selling, it’s gotta go.

More to come as we get it.
