<<A board based on the Mpact 2 handles 2-D and 3-D graphics as well as DVD decode
and sells for about $70 to OEMs. However, it tends to drop video frames when
handling graphics jobs, and its 3-D performance is as much as 50 percent below boards
offering separate 3-D graphics and DVD decode chips, and cost just $25 more,
Hopkins said. "It's not up to snuff with what you can do with dedicated processors even
at a lower cost," he added.>>

That is exactly what we said about the Mpact architecture/approach on this thread over 6 months ago. CUBE keeps delivering product while others fall by the wayside.
