Ted - RE: "To me the X-Box is more about reputation and future positioning than revenue..."

I agree, Ted. If AMD gets to supply the processor for X-Box, AMD will be viewed as a more stable, reputable supplier. After all, would a $500 Billion company invest in a company it didn't couldn't trust?

But that doesn't mean AMD won't make money off it. It will be nowhere near what they make on high-end Athlons but being a X-Box supplier will be better than having fab space just "being there".
