The article is saying that Intel isn't allowing any other company to make chipsets that support the 800MHz FSB Intel processors. The Taiwanese will still be allowed to make motherboards that use Intel's Springdale and Canterwood chipsets.

Yeah, SiS and VIA apparently won't be able to make chipsets that support the 800MHz FSB processors but companies like Asus and Abit will still be able to make mobos that use Intel's Springdale chipset.

Anything that eliminates competition stinks for the consumer.

Intel will be giving officiall support (a lisence) for 3rd party Chipset makerks once it has launched its own Chipsets that support a 800FSB.
