More on ASUS Mother Board road map

Judging by this info we dare make the following conclusions:

Almador based mainboards for 0.13 micron Pentium III CPU (Tualatin) won't support both: the ordinary SDRAM and DDR SDRAM. Either the first one or the second one.

VIA and ALi chipsets, however, are free from this drawback. NVIDIA is really working on mainboard chipsets currently for Pentium III and for Athlon. Both of them
will support ordinary SDRAM as well as DDR SDRAM and will be equipped with an integrated GeForce2 MX based graphics core.

ASUS isn't going to give up the manufacturing of i440BX based mainboards and is planning to introduce one more CUBX version – CUBX-E with the integrated ATA/100 controller.

In order to support 133MHz FSB of AMD CPUs there will be introduced an enhanced version of KT133 chipset – KT133A. This gives us to understand that the today's Socket A mainboards may appear unfit for the upcoming Mustang.

ASUS isn't going to waste its time on RDRAM support, even though it is forecast to get considerably cheaper next year. There will be only one mainboard for Pentium 4 supporting RDRAM in ASUS's product range

Mike,

You are unstoppable.

You claim to only want to discuss "facts" but offer a long viewpoint about "IF" Rambus did this etc etc etc., you would hold out for a settlement of 51% of RMBS.

I am not trying to be sarcastic, I am trying to be objective. Either we all can speculate about IFs or we can not.


"IF" there is one thing I like to do its speculate. I would truly be shocked if I have ever suggested that anyone "discuss only facts". Feel free to show me where I've done this and I'll confess error. ...And lace it with the best "sarcastic" "blasts" you can muster. I may like speculation, but I crave sarcasm.<vbg>

BUT even if MU's case were reasonably strong, given what we both agree about juries, MU has much more to lose than RMBS, since RMBS has been forced into this corner by the likes of (IMO) THIEVES like MU, out to steal RMBS technology, who licensed RMBS technology and too(k) investments from INTC just to use the money to develop something counter to what INTC's investment money was for.

I am not sure what you think about juries Mike, but the rest of this statement is what I find most endearing about many of the views expressed here.

Based on your analytical methods, I must assume that it galls you no end that "OJ" is walking around breathing free. It makes me curious as to what you would do "IF" your "THIEVES" obtain a similar result here.

In fact I do believe I would pay to see it. :8)
