From the beginning, motherboard support has plagued AMD's K7 series. In fact, one might go so far as to say that motherboards have done more to stop the success of the K7 than any other factor. Unfortunately, that's still happening today, as lack of viable integrated motherboards are damaging sales of AMD's Duron, and forcing OEMs to continue to turn to the Celeron.
