AMB: They arent official, but they're FINAL, which means they're exactly the same as the real one. This is how it was done, VIA gave their 4.25s to the mobo manufacturers before releasing it to the public(just like why the OEMs get WinME before we do). And one of the manufacturers, Soltek, released the 4-in-1s before VIA did, which I assume was unpermitted to do.
