Re: "Do you really think that is within Intel's chipset capabilities? I heard it took the huge Taiwanese conglomerate SiS a year to perfect that idea. I'm not sure Intel has the capabilities... Five times harder than an MTH, for example"

You gotta be kidding !!

Intel has been doing this for several years already !

The i440MX is just that - a ONE CHIP "chip set" combining the Northbridge and Southbridge functions for mobile applications. !!!

"Supports highly integrated single chipset combining north and south bridges "
