Dear Paul Lilly,

Thank you for contacting Newegg.

Please kindly note that it is not our description error or prank. It is just a business cooperation between the two companies. You may contact MSI or VIA for more detailed reason regarding this matter.

For your reference:

MSI: 626-581-3001 http://www.msicomputer.com/

VIA / VPSD: 510-687-5772 http://www.viavpsd.com/

If you have any further questions or concerns, please visit our FAQs page.

Thank you,

Joyce Fu

Very interesting indeed. From that message it doesn't look like VIA has purchased MSI, but like they said as "cooperation" of some kind. Looking at MSI's and VIA's website didn't turn up any information on the issue either...

You are seeing a lot of this in the industry....
Corsair and ASUS
DFI and OCZ
etc.... and I'm sure you'll see a lot more.
