pomp,

It is a good read and he captures the soap opera nature of it all very nicely. They always fail to mention that "costs will come down as yields improve". That is frustrating. There was some new comments on Via's PC133 plans being on hold!? Did you know this? Did you know that Via plans on supporting RDRAM eventually?

Interesting...

Will Via support PC133 SDRAM? It would like to, but as Forbes first pointed out, Intel sent a letter to its customers advising them that its PC133 SDRAM chip set, the Apollo Pro133, isn't covered under Intel's patent license. That followed a patent-infringement lawsuit against Via that Intel said it filed in error. Via executives were more suspicious. Since Intel won't let Via ship the Pro133 for now, Via's PC133 plans have been put on hold.

Is this right? If so, it would be big news if Via's PC133 SDRAM chip set was on hold!?
