New Vision - Re: "A question on the potential for the X-BOX and how much it can help Intel."

The XBOX will use a rather outdated 733 MHz Pentium /// - and intel will probably realize only $30+/- revenue for each of these.

It will provide an outlet for a few million processors - and help offset Intel's expenses - and produce a modest profit.

On the other side, the original IBM PC started off with Intel selling a low cost 8088 CPU for a few hundred thousand IBM PCs.

And we all know what happened later !
