Nvidia panicking about Microsoft cutting it out of the picture in the future design of the Xbox 2 need panic on its own no longer.
Others, including execs at chip giant Intel, and Via and AMD too, may shiver their timbers when the suits read the following.

My jaw dropped when I heard this from Jill. What was the evidence for this amazing story?
She said that the Microsofties looking after the Xbox 2 have posted a RFW for a DX-9/DX-10 microcode engine.
