Great Via interview over at Anand's:

anandtech.com

They are working on Hammer support. But I really liked the last sentence of the response to question #7:

I hear that Yellowstone Park is a
nice place to take a vacation.


LMAO!

Pravin.

Re: [you claim]the Pentium reaches 1.5GHz and offers little to no improvement.

I clearly stated that as a comparison of the initial release of P4 - which is where Motorola's chip is now.

I've already shown you huge increases in performance of P4 over PIII on your very own benchmarks

Comparing 1GHZ PIII to 1.5GHZ P4, with the noteable exception of running a canned demo of Quake as a sort of speeded up movie, your claim is false.

Faces in the clouds.
You see one.
I see another.
Reality is on no one's side.
The face in the GHz face off
is just a reflection of what you want to see.
My data.
Your data.
Words like, "little or no increase in performance."
And "pipeline stages."
They're all invention of delusional minds.
It's just hot rod talk for techies.

P.S. My G3 works much faster than I care to admit. It's always waiting on me.
