core does not = cpu

the core is part of a processor.


it won't have 3 of them. The xbox has a 733 p3

so a 3ghz is a HUGE jump. I'd expect to see a dual system at the most.

As far as I know the Tri-Core CPU is already in final silicone, or at least that what has been announced.

The first Xbox they released they lost money on the deck but made money on licensing the GAMES! That's where the action is for every $300.00 deck they'll sell at zero profit, they will also sell 20 $50.00 games. Beyond the initial development what does cost to burn a DVD? A quarter? Almost pure profit baby! Then come those $50.00 a pop for wireless controllers, light gun, steering wheel, need I go on?

I predict the deck will come retailing for about ~$300.00 again as another "loss leader"!
