"The other interesting news from GTC in the world of chipsets was the
revelation that NVIDIA has canceled its plans to make any more Intel
chipsets. Last year, when NVIDIA told us they would not be making a chipset
for the Nehalem/Bloomfield processors (and that they would be licensing SLI
on X58 motherboards) they reiterated their commitment to using their DMI bus
license to make an nForce chipset for the Lynnfield processors the following
year. Well, Lynnfield is out and with no news from NVIDIA on the subject, we
were beginning to suspect something was afoot. NVIDIA says that pressure
from Intel's legal department debating the validity of NVIDIA's DMI license
is really what kept NVIDIA out of the space."
