Gopher,

I think it is unlikely that MSFT will allow INTC to move into a position of sole supplier. INTC might start looking to make a profit on the processor sales or something equally preposterous.

In order to compete against PS2 graphics, X-box will have to use SIMD for the physics calculations and/or geometry. Perhaps they will make generic SIMD wrapper as part of the X-box API?
