Tony - Re: "Sounds like double dipping. I like double dipping."

That's what it is - for Intel !

VIA designs a chip set - spends money on its engineers - then spends money on fabbing the wafers - then spends money on testing the wafers - spends money on assembling the chips - testing them again - and then shipping them to customers.

And they then cut Intel a check for $2/chip set - in return for Intel to provide a person to carry those $2 checks to the bank !!

Good work for Intel.

Which then gets to sell another high-priced Pentium 4 to keep that cheap VIA chip set company on some mutha of a motherboard.
