RE <<<Due to i820's delay VIA sees it's chance of a lifetime. If Coppermine gets released without i820, the only sensible 133 MHz FSB & AGP4x platform will be the VIA 640 chipset. Thus all efforts at VIA are directed towards this chipset. At the same time resources are taken away from the development of VIA's upcoming Athlon-chipset..>> I don't buy this argument. Unless Via is very stupid, they know that they are not big enough or strong enough to antagonize two of their largest customers. The problems with the i820 is short term. Intc and/or AMD would have to be mortally wounded before a smart ceo would take the risk that Sharkey's is suggesting above. ted
