Sam,

I read that there will be an Alladin board out this summer with integrated GForce graphics. I wonder if that board will be used in the X-Box, or if it will be custom. Probably custom, but maybe still made by Acer.

Pravin.

Re: <Microsoft X-Box will run on the AMD Athlon processor.>

I suppose this is only fair if Intel is working on web appliances running a non-MS OS.

<This should also lead to releases of "Microsoft" compilers that optimize for the Athlon soon.>

This would be very interesting, particularly for gamers?
