Joe, <once invincible chipset division of Intel is in shambles, defeated by an upstart>

You make it sound like the fight is already over, as if it's too late for Intel's 815 chipset to take back Via's gains and then some.

RE:"- Via will continue to drag it's feet supporting AMD, Athlon support will go from low priority to very low priority"

I'm not so sure on this one...
VIA just might decide to put AMD chipsets on higher priority as a grudge thing...
I'd also put my higher margin/no royalty stuff on higher priority...
