following up a message from Roy J. Tellason to Paul Rogers:

 PR> Eeuuww!  As MPFC says, "Run away, run away!"  It's one of those
 PR> PC-Chips rip-off chipsets.  There lots of stuff on the web about
 PR> them, which you apparently can't get to yet.

 RJT> I did get to some of it yesterday,  and am still digesting it. 
 RJT> Why that reaction?  It doesn't seem to be a bad board based on
 RJT> anything that I'm seeing,  though most don't seem to think much of
 RJT> the onboard sound and video capabilities.  It does seem to run
 RJT> just a bit faster with the same CPU and RAM as I was using,  too.



 RJT> Your comments on this odd board?

 PR> Anything else available?  I wouldn't want that chipset.  PC-Chips
 PR> has been a real rip-off artist.  Stole chipsets, and an AMI BIOS. 

 RJT> Really?  I took that "M571" number that was in another post and
 RJT> did a google search on it,  first hit got me to a site with all
 RJT> sorts of info,  I didn't see anything else on it that ties in with
 RJT> what you're talking about here... 

So,  what is it that you don't like about this board?
