Tenchusatsu: <<On the contrary, AMD has no choice but to have other chipset makers design K7 chipsets. The problem is that if the other companies aren't on the ball designing the K7 chipsets, AMD could find themselves releasing the K7 on some very defeatured chipsets which could hamper its performance.>> Go back and read my other posts. Goldman Sach and Sutro & Co. said that AMD already has WORKING CHIPSET! I repeat, AMD ALREADY HAS WORKING CHIPSET FOR K7, NORTH BRIDGE AND SOUTHBRIDGE. It will be good for Via, ALI, and SIS to be second sources. If not AMD can carry the water. Do you think chipset is harder to design than K7? I hope you answer NO. That is like after seeing you run I ask whether you can walk. <<Huh? Intel is going to be releasing the 440ZX chipset in 1999, which is like a 100MHz version of the Celeron's 440EX chipset. Considering that socket 370 is also coming out in 1999, why wouldn't the 440ZX support the socket at 100 MHz?>> Intel has no intention of releasing the 100MHz socket 370 anytime soon. Till then the super socket 7 is superior to socket 370. Have you bailed on AMD yet? Or are you waiting for Gateway to announce? Maxwell
