Tench, Re: "Of course it isn't coincidence. It's just another instance of AMDroids fantasizing about X-Box again. Wishful thinking turns into sour grapes turns into wishful thinking again. It's so predictable." It is pretty funny. Some of the 'Droids just got finished saying how the X-Box win wasn't such a big deal for Intel - that it was a low margin, embedded part that shouldn't even be considered part of the x86 market share percentage. But now that there are rumors of AMD getting into X-Box2, the 'Droids are back trying to convince themselves that it could again be the big, hyped up deal they thought it would be the last time. I assume that this time, they will try and argue that Microsoft's first foray into the home console market wasn't supposed to be a big deal, but their second shot will be the big, revolutionary push that entertainment industry needs. And, in the center of such a push will obviously have to be an AMD Hammer processor. ;-) wbmw
