Chuck, CNBC said this morning they will talk about X-Box at the "Business Center" at 6:30ET today. If I remember correctly, Bill Gates will appear to talk about it. I view this as official confirmation of the X-Box rumor. If AMD is the choice of the processor, what's your take on short and long term impact on AMD? Do you think X-Box will be as successful as Playstation II? One sure thing to me is that if Spitfire is used in the X-Box, it will spur huge demand in Socket A solutions. Hope it will dramatically improve the economics of Socket A infrastructure. Regards, panic
