Dan, It may not be the pc133 iNhEL is after. The VIA MVP4 is a PC66/PC100 socket seven chipset. via.com.tw ebnews.com iNhEL is after VIA Apollo MVP4 chipset, Apollo Pro, and the SD11, which uses a Via south bridge (686). All three of these use the 686 southbridge. via.com.tw Until more details are available, hopefully within 20 days, we are not sure what specific patent/license violations allegedly has occurred. A different take is iNhEL has learned in the past that a lawsuit and it's legal proceedings can consume years before a settlement. Filing these "intimidation" lawsuits and losing them will more than pay off in the long run compared to the short term costs. AMD won't be around. Mysef
