I got a packet of presentation foils from Gigabit when I was at Comdex. I was very impressed with their demo. It was on very early silicon and the image quality and speed were both equal to or better than the GeForce.

With the price point that MS is trying to hit with the X-box, and since Gigabit is essentially an IP company, it occurs to me that if Athlon and the graphics processor are both to be fabbed in Dresden, shouldn't they be integrated on the same die to take advantage of performance enhancements that such an integration would allow? I suspect that this may in fact be exactly what we end up seeing!
