Re: "Please name a few of the 30 companies supporting this phantom Super Socket-7"

Here we go: FIC, Architech, Aopen, Abit, Atrend, Chaintech, Dataexpress, DFI, EFA, ENPC, Epox, Freetech, FYI, Gemlight, Gigabyte, Jamicon, Jetway, Lightstar, Lunghua, MSI, Octek, PCPartner, QDI, shuttle, Soltek, Soyo, Superpower, Tekram, TMC, Tyan, USI, Win, Winco and Zida will be releasing boards based on the VIA MVP3 chipset.

Check it out yourself on via.com.tw

Alladin V boards from Asus and 2 the MAX have been on shelves for sale since last month. The only significant motherboard companies I can think of off hand that have not announced a new super 7 board are Micronics, Intel and Supermicro (although Supermicro has a new socket 7 board based on the new SIS chipset).

BTW, VIA was named supplier of the year by Compaq last year.

Johnny boy,

Speaking of SI Term of Use, why didn't you told Xy off the same you told me? Most of his posts are copy of news releases. Most of them do not even includes the sources and writers. That SI Rule violation and copyright to name a few. As I said before, you have double standard. Now you even developed double personality.

You really make me laugh when you brought up your imaginary good buddy whose a AMD salesman. Funny that you never said you know of one before. Besides, AMD does not have salesmen in Motown. So that Motown salesman is probably selling you hot stuffs. Maybe he also a imposter like you (borrowing someone's name). These may explain why he can answer your tough question, if he even exist out your own mind.

BTW, If you really are not John, why Jill lets you (an unpaid and non member) use someone else account? Is it fair for us paid subscribers? I thought membership is not transferrable. Someone should check.
