John - Re: "Is this a big deal? Intel Introduces Integrated Chipset for Mobile PCs Intel 815EM Chipset Delivers Integrated Graphics Capabilities and Incorporates Intel Hub Architecture" Yes - on at least two counts. First, the i815EM has integrated graphics on board - so use of this chip set will lower the component cost - and assembly/inventory cost - for low end notebooks. Second - for higher end notebooks - it provides for faster memory - PC133 SDRAM and AGP4X graphics (if an external graphics chip is used). The EIDE drive interface should also handle ATA100 drives if available for notebooks. The older 440BX/MX was a PC100 and AGP 2X solution. Thus, Intel re-ups the performance bar - for any competitor trying to squeeze into this business - AMD, VIA, TransMeta, etc. Paul
