Zach - Re: "Does Intel have any interest in going after the set top box market? " First, i don't believe there is such a thing as the "set top box" market. About 7 or 8 years ago, the initial Set Top Box Gold Rush began and Intel went after it with their version of an embedded 386 core. Nothing came from Intel's efforts - nor any one elses'. Then, a few years ago, the second Set Top Box Gold Rush began and Intel made some minor effort - but didn't commit any major resources - thankfully. Re: "consumers will be getting high speed Internet access via these devices" Not so - I have a cable modem and NO SET TOP BOX. Re: "Also, if video on demand ever becomes a reality, these boxes will be the gatekeepers." I'm sure they will - and the couch potatoes that watch all that video will be the animals behind the gates.
