Cirrus and all. Intel designed the i810e to be a Mainstream platform, intended to be shipped with PIII's as well as Celeron. Coppermine is a PIII. Yes, i820 would be better for the very high end, but strongly suggest that Coppermine's intended target has not changed that much as far as the i810e is concerned. It's very clear that Camino was supposed to replace the current mainstream chipset, the BX. The 810 certainly can't be considered a replacement or successor to the BX, since it is a low-end integrated chipset with no AGP port. The great mystery is how Intel managed to paint themselves into a corner with Camino/Rambus. It wasn't easy - they had to work hard to put themselves in such a bad spot.
