As was stated many times over in the debate about the previous 810 chipset
"glitch", the problem resulted when you tried to use a Pentium(R) III with
the 810 chipset, a marriage that was never meant to be. The 810 was targeted
EXCLUSIVEY for the Celeron(TM) market. I suppose next you're going to start
complaining because the Intel chipsets don't support the AMD K7!

I'm getting a little tired of ZDNet sensationalizing their headlines. Any
time they can use the words "Intel" and "glitch" or "flaw" together is more
important than presenting the truth of the matter.>>

Now he knows what an "erratum" feels like. I suggested to Craig that he head
over to SI and post their boards like a one-armed engineer. I think we
should all write Craig with helpful suggestions. :-)

Where are we going and why am I in this handbasket?
