Okay I allways thought this was an oddity, or at best a curiousity. this is a Combo Network/Wide SCSI board from an HP Vectra Workstation. It has both an Intel chip, and an AMD network chip, right next to each other.

| Intel chip is simply PCI bridge. And to be precise this chip was originally DEC's chip. |
