VIA does not want to miss out on the party, which is why it will be offering HD graphics to netbooks as well via (no pun intended) its Trinity platform that pits a VIA Nano or VIA C7 processor with a VIA integrated Media System Processor and and onboard S3 Graphics chip. To date, VIA has teamed up its processors with S3 GPUs in certain netbooks, although the results are best left unannounced due to their relative inferiority compared to NVIDIA's solution. According to VIA, the Trinity platform will be much beefier, capable of handling DirectX 10.1, HD video and playback of Blu-ray discs. The proof is in the pudding, so we'll play the wait-and-see game.
