Where's Alviso?

Posted by timothy on from the look-for-red-stripes dept.

DMOS writes "Intel's 'Dothan' processor for moblile computers has finally seen the light of day, but where is the rest of the 'Sonoma' platform? Specifically, the 'Alviso' chipset that is replacing the current i855 and ICH4m. So far it appears to be MIA, and Devhardware looks into why with their 'Where's Alviso?' article."

      Solution 1) marry 2) fetch your mother-in-law's wheelchair 3) attach a rocket engine 4) pretend you are raising funds for parkinson-patients 5) profit ! 6) get that Athlon 64!

      I forgot two things (damn, I should have used the preview)
      1. Use line breaks
      2. Note that the first step is actually not a very wise thing to do. Don't try it at home!

    ...whenever Alviso's not onscreen, all the other characters should be asking "Where's Alviso?"...

  6. Alviso - Some damned good places to eat by Dosco+Jones · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Take North 1st street across 237 and keep heading north. There's a small golf course with a driving range, and a number of restaurants further down the road. The Pin High at the golf course has pretty decent burgers. Maria's has some very excellent Mexican food, cold beer, and lunch specials every day. Andiamo is an Italian Mexican restaurant. The menus are split right down the middle. Check it out. Rosita's is a small deli you'll miss the first two times you look for it, even though it's right there on the main road into Alviso. Look under the big power lines. Say hi to grandma. They're open early for breakfast. Don't be a wuss. Check the place out.
