I think Intel has tried everything.... In their LABS offcourse. Just didnt want their [chipset] business to suffer coz of a swanky-feature... [Remember its got like 10 to 50 acers of Silicon waffers almost monthly]. If I am in command, it works for me too... Moni from everywhere

Tech onboard or No Tech... and I still remember I saying Intel got killed when AMD & On-Board Mem-Controler thing came out... but they did it again with a better performing CPU and tweaked chipset!!
Also That Israel Team is always onto something to keep AMD & all of us on our Toe... I guess
