that didn't seem to stop Nvidia, Microsoft or Nintendo from designing the stuff in.

That reminds me the Xbox was supposted to have 733 MHz P3 as CPU. Intel just KOed all existing P3 chips from the roadmap this month. So XBox is back to the drawing boards in terms of what type of CPU it will use when it comes out in 9-10 months. Honestly I haven't heard any additional details about Nitendo Dolphin in ages either.

Intel tried to bring Timna out with SDRAM instead of RDRAM, and then finally gave up on it completely?

VIA's Samuel II on 0.13 mu process looks like a $30-40 integrated CPU/video controller/Southbridge configuration which Intel couldn't produce something comparable for a profit for at least double the price. For Intel now, It's "P4, party on dude" until further notice.

Happy holidays to you
