RE: <It could be argued that Timna could be squeezed between Playstation II and basic PC (with Celeron or Coppermine-128 or Cyrix or National or AMD low-end offerings) and will not EVER become a volume product. Timna may be too old a core to provide some of the gaming performance that would be necessary for this class of devices.>

I expect that Timna will be succesful at 0.13u technology in about 1.5-2 years. But whether Timna makes it or not I still expect the typical PC to come down to 3D integrated either into the North Bridge or NB+3D integrated into the CPU. In either case drdram is a good solution since the 3D will need lots of bandwidth and the low pin count allows several rambus channels.
