Joe, If this thing goes through, half of Dresden fab will be producing for X-Box. With Austin fab going to mostly flash, AMD may need another fab :-) 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. It seems like we are barely covering costs here, if that. I thought the reason why AMD was in the cpu business is the potential for significant margins. Am I off-base here? -Scot
