Dan, <I don't know much else about it, they were on the market in 1997 and then disappeared. > Now, I am not sure what you are saying. Have these guys been in the chipset business or not? <They may have been told by Intel that they weren't to compete in this area (pure speculation, but the comments about a foundry with an Intel cross license would seem to lend some support). > This would makes sense if Micron did not have the required licence from Intel for the Pentium bus. Thanks for the background. It would be interesting to know a little bit more on what happened and if Micron ever has a chipset in production prior to this. Chuck
