< but Cyrix and AMD are making hay in the low-cost PC market.>

Really???

How then do you explain the red ink they keep posting at the end of each quarter? Is this perhaps red hay?

James; Intel cannot kill socket 7, as it will live on with all the others. It looks like the slot 1 is becoming another microchannel. as more and more vendors stay the course.

James, thanks for chipset URL. I can't believe Intel would try to make the TX chipset cheaper by reducing its performance. It already can't handle more than 64M cacheable RAM and doesn't support AGP like the Acer Alladin IV chipset and VIA VP-3.

Acer is selling its Aladdin IV chip set for the P55C at run rates as high as 1.2 million units a month
