Without getting over my head, my view from the outside is that processor+ eDRAM, connected by LDT to an nVIDIA Xbox style integrated northbridge memory/graphics controller looks like a good next step PC architecture. Most of the pieces seem to be falling in place for that. If they need more stuff to fill out the northbridge chip, there's always eDRAM and the southbridge to integrate.

If LDT (HyperTransport is it now?) is really son of SCI, then there are many, many alternative configurations that should be doable quite easily. Most would be overkill fo mass market PCs, though.
