Sylvester Isn't Almador supposed to be SDRAM PC133 only chipset?
If you have an official Intel link stating this, please post it. Otherwise it's FUD. <VBG>

Also remember the last SDRAM chipset that Intel announced and when it shipped? It was the i815 and was supposed to ship January 2000. When do you think it shipped? (Hint: it wasn't Jan 2000 ;-)

If you have an official Intel link saying it was to ship January 2000 please post it. <G>
The i815 wasn't supposed to exist. If you remember, Intel originally said it wouldn't support PC133. IMO, Intel was originally planning for the i820 to eventually replace the 440BX. Reaction to the i820 was the main reason for the i815 with PC133 support.

As for your logic. Where can I buy a P4? Where can I get a P4 PC? P4 is vaporware. Show me a link where I can order a P4 PC. P4 is dead, dead, dead. <VBG>

(With apologies to Intel <g>).
