I have FreeBSD running on a BookPC that uses the SiS630 chipset... this
chipset is unbearable slow.

I saw a small platform the other day based on the i815.

I'm really begning to move away from a windows platform from my day to day
atcivity replacing time spent there with time spent on my FreeBSD system. 
The slow graphics refresh is really beginning to plauge me know.

I have the i815 on a laptop and it seems to run nicely, but I don't know
how well it will run XFree 3.3.6.

Anyone have any experience with both chipsets?
