Welcome to IWETHEY!

New I'm kind of surprised with the direction...
IBM apparently has fab resale rights for AMD's Athlon 64 processor - it would have been easier for Microsoft to pick up an Athlon 64 proc for their next gen box, and keep backwards compatability.
In that final hour, when each breath is a struggle to take, and you are looking back over your life's accomplishments, which memories would you treasure? The empires you built, or the joy you spread to others?

Therin lies the true measure of a man.
New Lots of info/musings in this story at TheInq.

One ring to rule them all. <evil laugh!>

Cheers,
Scott.
New I (don't) like the Cell angle.
New The best part is that Intel get "bobkas". :)
(That's Yiddish for beans.)

My prediction would be that Xbox will be AMD-64 based for compatibility reasons and some initial uncertainties that will come with Cell.

New I would not doubt it.
'p' and 'b' being the same sound, except that 'b' is voiced. Vowels tend not to carry much if any information.
