OK, so you are on record as saying that all non-Intel motherboards using the Camino chipset "do not work at all"

Is that what you are saying, or are you just mumbling again?

RE: <Me thinks that the third party designs, even when "copied exactly" to the best of their knowledge, just do not work at all, so the term "failure rate" is not applicable.>

Are you using the terms "third party" to mean small companies and not Dell and HP who just announced a Camino product. I would expect that these big guys are past the "do not work at all" stage.
