SpryGuy - Re: "(Supplying the Xbox 650's beats having to discard the huge oversupply of 650's that has accumulated while attempting to push out 733's, I guess!)" I overestimated what little intelligence I thought you once had. The XBOX will involve essentially ZERO - NADA - ZIPPO - CPUS from Intel in this year (2000) and the first half of next year (2001). That makes your comments unbelievably ridiculous - which is typical for you !! By late next year, Intel will have at least two more fabs on stream, and their 0.13 micron wafer fab process starting to ramp. By year 2002, if and when XBOX hits serious production levels, Intel will be starting to convert to 300 MM wafers in PRODUCTION !!! That will make the XBOX CPUs so cheap, that they will give Intel a credible boost to PROFITS as well as revenue. And don't forget - IF the XBOX is successful, every kid that buys one will be asking his Mom or Dad, "What does INTEL INSIDE mean ?", when he reads that cool little LABEL on his new Game Machine !!! And when these kids get older and buy their first computers, I'm sure most of them will specify INTEL INSIDE, since they will already be familiar with that brand ! Paul
