RE:"As for the X-Box design win, you 'Droids have never - RE:"and WILL NEVER - get over the fact that Intel won that contract - and AMD blew it ! You Droids were butt slapping yourselves silly when every one of you thought that AMD had one that contract !! Then, when Intel won it, you guys reversed course faster than Clinton on a witness stand - and all of a sudden it was a loser project. Will, in one sense it was a loser project - but the LOSER WAS AMD !!" I didn't know we were arguing about that. BTW, what is this "You droids"?, is that like when Perot said "you people" to an ethnic group? Yes I remember that AMD seeming to have the inside track for X-box and Intel apparently out bid them. There was some disappointment....and rationalization. Some said that was end of 3Dnow. Intel will indeed have a market for those $30 chips...their focus is on market share. Jim
