Jim, Re: "If Microsoft knew AMD couldn't supply, why was the X_box originally designed around the K7?"

Good point. But besides including an Athlon in their original mock-up, how much did Microsoft have invested in the design with respect to the Athlon at that time? The Athlon could just as easily have been a place-holder than an original design.
