Pravin, it does seem a little odd that there has been no mention of the proceesor in all these articles about FIC and NEC. Before you get your hopes up, rememeber that PB recently announced a couple of low end notebooks that do not use the GX.

OT, the imminent collapse of Russia has markets in a tizzy when not too long ago such an event would have been greeted with a celebration. If the IMF plays its cards right, Russia could be turned into a captive consumer nation. Just the ticket to offset Asia's recent decline.

If Russia remains desperate for cash, the U.S. and Euro community could get together and buy up land, natural resources and whatever factories remain functional. By controlling the "means of production" within the country and the flow of foodstuff imports, a Euro/US alliance could turn Russia into a huge "company town" (with everyone indebted to the "company store".) The peace dividend from such actions would more than pay for things (you never bomb the guy who pays your salary and fills the local storeshelves).

However immoral it may be to take such advantage of another's misfortune, it is the way of the world. But what worries me most is whether the Russian soldiers who guard their nukes have eaten well today.
