Via to intro new Athlon chipset, DDR desktop next week
And sources close to the company say that Via will unveil a DDR (double data rate) synchronous memory strategy aimed at desktop PCs, rather than servers. This might be behind closed doors but Via doesn't seem to get scared very easily, so may well go public on the whole shebang.

Bilow - <Hi Process Boy; The new pentiums start to appear in Japan>

Yes, I saw that. I was particularly interested in the linked photos, one in particular that showed the lot and serial # on a 733 package.

Carl - RE: "When we say limited, we mean pitiful. The total number of parts available adds up to 42 Coppermine processors for sale."

That's a WHOLE 10-11 per .18 Intel fab!

It is EASY to say demand is strong when you can produce processors in that quantity!
