Fyo,

Exactly the point. Essentially, you could build an XBox clone using a P4 instead of a PIII. This would seriously boost performance.

I am still missing the point. NVidia already has a chipset for Athlon (which performs better than P4), they don't need a license for Athlon current bus, they are part of the HT team for future Athlon processors, so where would be the motivation to create an Xbox killer based on P4, where they would be starting from scratch, and swimming upstream vs. Athlon platform, where they already have most of the pieces together.
