Wanna Re..Please... do you ever think before you speak? No, I have an umblemished record in that department. 3GIO is the next generation of connectivity after PCI, which was the technology generation after ISA, and neither of these standards included licensing fees, either.<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< The PCI standard was used to connect hard disks, graphics cards, memory, etc. to the bus, which connected to the chipset. AFAIK HT will be used for far more than that; as in chip to chip. chipset to chip, and bus to chipset. The HT AFAIK could eventually replace EV6, or if Intel desired, the GTI (I believe) of the P3. I don't even know what Intel calls their P4 bus. It was the GTI that Intel licensed. Are you saying that either HT can't be used as a bus for chipset to chip, or that 3gi/o will be used in the future for Intels chipset to chip bus, and won't require licensing for say Via to make a chipset for the P4.
