OT with a graphic accelarator, users don't need to buy a high-end workstation to play great games... they can live with their celerons, AMD's, and P200's for a year or 2 longer... how will Intel survive? :)

Funny and dead on! You may want to post this on INTC thread. Intel is in a lot of trouble. It just isn't that obvious yet. Give it another two years and it will be.

Michael - you said "How about reversing the question... with a graphic accelarator, users don't need to buy a high-end workstation to play great games... they can live with their celerons, AMD's, and P200's for a year or 2 longer... how will Intel survive? :)"

This is exactly what I was thinking when I initially invested in TDFX. I got my head handed to me. Moral of the story? I'm not sure, but I think it may have something to do with never betting on somebody who is supposed to make money by taking market share away from Intel.

Regards.
