Tench, re:<cost of M$ Gamebox> They would put $400 worth of parts inside and sell it for $300 to get
1. Stream of licensing fees from Gamebox titles

ALL the money in the console gaming industry is made in the game sales. And don't forget the other benefits to AMD I have mentioned before such as Athlon-optimized game titles, Athlon-optimized software development tools and brand recognition.
