Tom,

Thanks for the nice words about our stuff, and yes our NICs are awesome!

Chipsets are going to be a thing of the past, nVidea is already out selling off their old stuff. Both Intel and AMD are putting more into the processors. Our new Sandy Bridge stuff has the graphics as part of the CPU. The only thing left outside the processor is the I/O links.

In addition to QSV (we are not charging royalties, if fact we are paying others to support it) we now have Intel Insider and WiDi that will allow you to view protected content (first run internet movies) on your computer and even wirelessly stream Blue Ray and internet to your big screen TV.

More, much more to come.....
