     All curent chipsets contain two chips, called "north bridge" and "south
bridge". North bridge implements interface with CPU, memoty controller, AGP;
south bridge implements periferia - IDE, USB, network, LPC (ex-ISA: kbd,
floppy), etc. For example, ALi MAGiK1 chipset contains M1647 north bridge
(with Socket A interface) and M1535D south bridge (ATA/100, 6 USB, etc).
