NO! no! no!  ATI always developes it's own chip set, and sometimes OEMs
it to others.  I believe someone is working on ATI chip set support but you
have to wait.

ATI also has a newer chip set like Tseng's ET4000, ie. capable of supporting
one meg vedio ram. (They may not compatible with each other at hardware level,
however).

Paradise, I think, has been sold by Western Digital to Packard Bell not long
ago.
