Is Intel still in the graphics chip business? I thought about six months ago the indicated plans to exit. Of course maybe I was dreaming... I think the threat of intel is what made the graphics chip biz so unprofitable the last 2 years.

I'm not sure how durable that hard disk will be. When you jog you create several G's of acceleration, which is not good for an MR head moving at 1 micro inch above the magnetic media. It almost sounds like a contact head, which at 6 Gig capacities is big and bulky.

Not sure that the product will not create a mass return of product after initial sales surge.
