It pretty much helped form/(cement?) my opinion when Soyo went out
of the MB business... <grin>
The good news is -- they still support the stuff on the WEB, so I can't
complain (too much...)

Interesting. I've seen a lot of VIA boards, and good ones seem to
work for years, whilst the cheap ones die early. In a lot of cases,
I think it's the curse of less expensive components. - VIA and AMD
are less expensive so often get stuck in a device built of
substandard components to keep the price down - then the thing fails
and people think "VIA sucks" or "AMD sucks" when in reality it was
the other stuff that was causing the problems.
