Hi Carl, I still think that 845 started developing some time late last year:

Your estimate of how long it takes to get a chipset done is low by about 12 months. I don't know why you think that they're so easy to do.... You really just have no idea how complicated the PCI interface, for example, is.

Of course, I agree and I know, but that problem also exists in the 850 and 840, so there is little incremental designing to do for the 845. I stick to my estimate that they started late 2000 and some time we will find out for real <gg> (I have friends in high places:)

As for the bandwidth question, I am not sure if you are comparing sampling DDR parts with production RDRAM parts (have to keep the scales evenly balanced don't we?)

cheers
