Nothing really new here in the article. But FWIWthe part about RMBS " In the chipset market, Via has already proven itself an able competitor against Intel. Six months ago, Chen made the risky decision to produce next-generation PC133 chipsets, against an industry that was following Intel en masse toward Rambus-based (RMBS:Nasdaq) chipsets, which aren't compatible with PC133. But the revolutionary Rambus designs are proving so troublesome that Intel has yet to come out with the parts to support its own microprocessors. And Intel's customers have been buying so many Via PC133 chipsets this summer that they are in short supply. Intel is expected to announce at its developers' forum next week that it will follow Via with its own line of PC133 products. "Without us, Rambus would have become the de facto standard," Chen says.
