Mirage 3 do support Aero

"It'll limp along nicely in Windows XP, but no special effects in Vista, so this isn't exactly a mounting achievement over current Atom chipsets."
The Mirage 3 do support Vista Aero, since it is DX9.

VIA

@Atari
Although you could use VIA's CN800/PN800 northbridge and VT8251 southbridge combo in an Atom board and it would probably work. The fact that VIA released the Nano/Isiah processor means that it will not be making any Atom boards any time soon.You also must remember that VIA's legal battles with Intel regarding Patents most likely mean that VIA can't claim Atom compatibility, even if they wanted to.

the REAL question is...

how much power the combo will use.
Is there finally a 4W chipset to match the 4W CPU?

Of course i am going by the assumption that anything has to be better then the 50 Watt, depreciated 3 4 years ago, stone age design chip intel has used in its atom offerings.

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
