Jim, Re: I saw that release but it does not correspond with my other sources

Who do you trust more: The president of ALI himself or some "other" sources? I think the president of a company knows best when their products are shipping. And since there are already samples available (including first benchmark numbers) I have no doubt we well see the boards as promised in Q4. Don't you think that he is the best "source" for that kind of information?

Major OEMs with DDR systems are another story. I don't think we will see any ALI DDR boards in OEM systems this year (the same goes for VIA DDR motherboards). I do think we will see AMD 760 systems this year (probably at least from Gateway and Compaq). AMD has provided major OEMs for months now with samples and many hardware sites already have production boards for reviews (under NDA).
