This is very good news but: "The new standard is expected by the end 1999, with computers using it scheduled to be available by the end of 2001." Does this mean that we will have to wait for more than 2 years for a real ramp-up of I2O revenues? Or is it that other applications will be using a chip with I2O much sooner and in greater quantities than PCs? Regards Erwin

"The resolution addresses concerns from Intel that the standard would only work in expensive machines, not the lower-priced computers that Intel sells in such large quantities, sources said. In addition, the new standard has room for server makers to extend it to accommodate more proprietary technology that make their products stand out from the pack." This looks huge if Wind get a dollar something off each application of system i/o. That is the big ???.
