Hello Ultra et al.,

Several weeks ago Intel's soon-to-be-released Solano chipset was the topic
of a thread we had going here at PCBuild.  With its support for the 133 MHz
FSB utilizing PC133 SDRAM, motherboards based on this chipset look like
they'll be in the 'absolutely must have' category for those of us looking
for top-notch performance and value in our next system buy, build or
upgrade.

Tom's Hardware published a comprehensive review of Solano a few days ago
while PC Scoop released some specifications on the i815 and i815e
motherboards.  Read what they have to say and get ready to order.
