Cyrix and IDT's Winchip are part of VIA. IBM and STM also make them.

Samsung manufactures some of the Alpha processors. Other CPU manufacturers are:
Mips
Hitachi- SH3, SH4, etc
Sun- Ultrasparc
IBM - PowerPC
NEC - ?(some CPU for handhelds)
Transmeta - soon Crusoe
HP - (can't remeber name of chip, is used in servers)
Motorola - PowerPC, 68XXX derivatives
Toshiba/Sony - CPU of Dreamcast 2 (name?)

Those are the ones I can think of off the top of my head, there are others though
