anyone able to clue me in on the diffs between the Zx and the Tx ??

i just picked up a book _pci_system_architecture_ from mindshare.  cost 
$5 and talks about the i82420 TX  pci chipset.  is this the saturn 
chipset vs saturn ii chipset ?

	why was the saturn chipset replaced--new features or faulty 
chipset ?

jmb	

ps.  the asus sp3g uses:
	chip0 <intel 82424ZX cache dram controller> on pci0:0
	chip1 <intel 82378IB pci-isa bridge> on pci0:2

the book talks of:
	intel 82424TX cache dram controller
	intel 82423TX data path unit
	intel 82378IB pci-isa bridge
