Scumbria,
Re: This thread is immune to facts.
You are right. From the bashers we've had nothing but a lot of, fiction, vapor, hype, bashing, FUD and BS. Unfortunately... no facts.
For example Bilow saying that: "Where did VIA say that they were going to use the Samurai? Must have been something I missed."

"DDR will get a boost when third-party chipset maker Via Technologies Inc. discloses that it has licensed the DDR-enabled Samurai core-logic chipset from Micron Technology Inc., industry sources said.
The Samurai, which Micron tapped more as a proof-of-concept device than a commercial chipset, will nevertheless signal Via's entrance into the DDR marketplace, according to sources close to the companies. Via, Taipei, Taiwan, is expected to use the license to develop an expanded DDR-enabled device for production at its foundry partners."

So you are right. Bashers have the fiction and we have the facts. |
