Re: "Intel must have some similar feelings internally, since the champion cumine SPECint95 (which is actually of course SPECint_base95) that Elmer is so proud of was from a BX board. "

You are wrong. The best score has been posted by a 820 chipset and let it also be known that I have not raise the SPEC benchmark issue in quite a while but you guys sure seem fascinated with it.

Re: This story has me scratching my head about Rambus once more.... All I can figure is that Intel is highly devoted to Rambus for marchitectural reasons, as the Register would say.

Hi Dan,

It all made sense to me once I learned that Intel's strategies are planned years in advance, and then executed by lemmings.

Why doesn't Intel do an updated BX chipset for PC133?

Intel only gives server customers what they want. Desktop customers are screwed.
