RE: <I doubt that the engineers at VIA are dumb, its just that there are tricks that can be done in the chipset if you know the innards of the CPU.> I wonder if the problem is that Apollo PRO 133 is just not ready. Remember how the early bootleg K7 testing showed really bad FP? I very curious of the status of Via's new chip sets for both Athlon and Coppermine. Is the design optimized and stable and can they support the production ramp for the xmas season? If yes then they can reap a huge windfall from the Rambus mess. If no, then they are just smoke.
