I've been aware that Via has problems (you don't say. . . ) and some viscious opponents. Via's Apollo Pro 133/A is crap against the BX. Really? Let's see, at the time Intel offered two new chipsets for the Pentium III: the 810 and the 820.

If you count my dad's laptop, 7 are at home, six if not (nearly fooled ya, there:p). Of course, mine are the fastest overall, only loosing out with 5400RPM drives to 7200RPM ones. .

It just occured to me that perhaps Osama and his cronies may be responsible for these viruses? It seems like a very good method of him trying to accomplish his goal. . . disrupting the economies of the world etc.
