Dan, <Oh no! Is there a KM133a now too? Or is confusion catching?> I don't know about KM133A. I only know of KT133A and KM133 - one chip is for mid-range and the other for low-end. <More generally, are integrated chipsets common in laptops?> Not yet! But, Intel is driving hard to make integrated graphics the mainstay. Partly to deflate AMD push toward DDR in laptops. < Seems like it'd be a good idea, power wise, but it's a little harder to keep track of what's used there.> It is a great idea! AMD should enable a platform with integrated graphics chip on laptops soon. Otherwise, mobile-K7s will be shipping at a $20-30 cost-disadvantage to the Intel equivalents (and we know what a similar thing did to Duron ramp) Chuck
