Exactly. Plus you are stuck with the PIII which can't take advantage
of it. And the Price/Performance is bad. The 815 is almost
interesting as it has good Price/Performance. It is just AMD is
currently blowing Intel away...
The only chipset I have heard any interest for is the 850.

True. Though I won't knock what works.
Right now I just wish I didn't keep finding BIOS write enables in all
kinds of other chips that really have no business caring. If someone
is serious it doesn't matter, and if they aren't serious they aren't
flashing your BIOS anyway. Security through obscurity.
