I dunno if you all have seen this. Asus, MSi and possibly Gigabyte are preparing VIA PT400 motherboards. When I saw this I just got into thinking. Are we going to see a 133A again with the PT400? Intel has no plans for a single channel DDR chipset that supports the 800fsb, but rather having people buy the i865, which is expensive to produce, although it does remain to be seen how expensive i865 boards will be. I think I heard a $130 price tag, and that is not bad, but VIA surely can undercut Intel's production costs. Just a thought, and this should be an interesting thing to keep an eye on.
