KZNerd - Re: "do you think that it is possible that Intel has a secret 44xxx chip set for Coppermine in the back room with direct interface to sdram that they been keeping quiet so as to not take the pressure off the dram industry to switch to drdram? Could they do such a thing and keep it secret?"

I'm not aware of anything specific.

However, Intel could possibly shrink the 440BX/GX - but they will have to modify the DRAM interface to match the PC133 standards, add UltraDMA66 support and 4x AGP - all doable - but EXTREMELY DOUBTFUL by September.
