**M????          Genie, Quad Pentium  [no datasheet, some info]    c95
***Notes:
It looks  like this  was never released,  very little info,  the 4-CPU
support   of  the  Pentium   is  inconsistent   with  the   Intel  SMP
architecture.

"
3) The Genie Chipset (Acer Labs: 10B9/4281) (8/27/95)
This is  a chipset by Acer  Laboratories Inc. (ALI)  which is intended
for  use in  multiprocessing systems.  Specifically, the  chipset will
support up to four P54C, P55C, Cyrix M1 or AMD K5 processors, though I
don't  know if  you  can "mix  and  match" the  CPUs  (though I  doubt
it). I've had  no reports of success or failure  with boards which use
this chipset.  "

**AMD 640/645     (Pentium Based on VIA VT82C590) [some info]      c97
640=VT82C595
645=VT82C586B

The  Shuttle  HOT-603 is  the  only  known  motherboard with  the  640
chipset.

There may be another version known  as the 640AGP with AGP support. It
is difficult to determine if this ever existed.

Various sources  state the  AMD 640  is the same  as the  VIA VT82C590
(VP2) chip set. However no first-hand source (datasheet, etc) has been
found. YMMV
