Speculation time!
http://www.the-nextlevel.com/board/s...threadid=16178
its interesting news
speculation could lead to alot of ideas
either theyre going to continue working with ATI for the sucessor to the GC's chip or maybe something for a GBA sucessor
or possibly theyre going to allow ATI to use some GC technology on their PC cards
lots of things come to mind but who knows what
i suppose only time will tell
Its a great time for ATI these days with their fantastic Radeon video cards like the Radeon 9700 Pro become the choice for PC gamers (I myself will buy one within the next 2-3 months) while Nvidia is slowly becoming the laughingstock with their Geforce FX which is beyond late and isnt even better than the Radeon cards.
Of course the video capabilities of the Cube is pretty similar to a Radeon 9700 (same engineers I think) so working on nintendo's next hardware will be more beneficial for them and is probably what the new news is all about.
I remember reading some speculation that ATI may also develop the video capabilities for Microsoft's next hardware as well though if they signed some exclusive contract with Nintendo that probably wont happen.
I remember reading that Nvidia was not happy with the way MS had been treating them and with the deal (i dont think Intel is happy either) i could have sworn there was word that for the next Xbox MS was going to look for different hardware developers perhaps this was Nintendo's way of ensuring the ATI MS deal didnt happen
Well gee, Nvidia delivers the X-box video chipset late and below the original spec.
Did they expect Microsoft to offer free hookers to everyone in the company?
They are lucky MS didnt sue, and then buyout thier asses.
well wouldnt you expect that from MS *LOL*Quote:

Well, yeah, but then she would freeze up right in the middle and Id have to find her CTRL/ALT/DEL buttons.

runs very very very smooth
I prefer my hookers to work right out of the box, if I got to tweak her to work right she ain't worth the time.
