Kash,

A very limited number of its low-end 810 chipset shipments were involved in what Intel calls the "production test escape issue."

If this would have been an AMD product, our Intellabee friends would be swarming all over the thread declaring that it "never could happen at Intel" ;^))

Intel engineering appears to be in total disarray.

Kash, re: defective 810 chipsets

Big deal. For a "post-production errata," it's pretty tame considering that it has already been fixed in current versions of the chipset. That's pretty quick, especially since there are very few 810-based PCs out in the market right now.

Net effect: Zero. Maybe some defective 810 chipsets have already escaped out onto the marketplace, but I doubt it's that many.
