When the nForce first came out, it arrived to a rather hostile audience. The average hardware tinkerer just does not like that level of integration. Some parts, like network cards, are getting more accepted, but graphics is still a ways from being another chip on the board. When we asked NVIDIA about the possibility of a nForce without video, their first response was no. I guess after considering the costs and lack of interest that plan was reconsidered. Out pops the 415-D a few months later. A fully functioning Dolby Digital decoding chipset, minus the onboard GeForce2 MX.
