| Yeah, Via have made CPU's for years but they've never really been mainstream. There's even a DIY CPU kit (not from VIA and it only runs at 1Ghz) out there! There's probably hundreds of CPU manufacturers out there we don't know of.
Intel are too greedy. I would love to see Via making some really good CPU's. They've got an awful lot of power behind them because they've made chipsets for years.
