Glad to see you're even less of a chipset expert, Kurt. AGP is nothing more than PCI with stricter timing. Direct support in the memory controller chip for AGP is totally irrelevant to the end-user, and only important from the design stage. What isn't irrelevant is Articia-S's fatal bugs and its lack of DDR support, and of course Mai's total unwillingness to admit any bugs until IBM stepped in. Regardless of the Articia-S features, its bugs make it useless crap anyway.

The difference between FUD and non-FUD is fact. That makes you technically more than a fudder than myself. Have a nice day, soldier-boy.
