Scot, RE<My question/concern about the X-Box is simply...how is AMD going to make any money? The
console could be priced as low as $149, including a hard drive. >

If you buy a PCS today, What you pay is significantly less than what OEMs sell to the service providers, which subsidize your purchase. I don't believe any OEMs can make any money off $149. Microsoft or ISVs must subsidize it. The OEM price of X-Box could be in the $300 range, IMHO.

Regards,
