PB,

<It is, however, an outlet for 133 FSB Coppermines. In light of the current situation, a positive, IMHO. >

This is absolutely true! Don't you think it is incredible that Intel was trying to sue these guys?

<If a 533 PIIIB can plug into this board, so could a 7xx PIII-EB (Coppermine w/ 133 FSB). Qualifying this with the fact that I have no idea if IBM is actually going to market this configuration, but it appears to me the infrastructure is already there, and IMHO nullifying your argument about PC-133 systems not being certified for business users by the end of the year. >

Only caveat here is that so far Intel has outperformed VIA in the chipset biz. VIA's performance is only so-so. Intel could have done a butt-kick chipset with PC133.
