This is not the normal way in which I think of
Big Blue, but Microsoft has turned to IBM for the chips for the next version of the
XBOX. The first version of the chip was done by Intel, but I guess that Microsoft has not been happy with them or something. They were tallking quite a bit with AMD about supplying the chips for XBOX2, but it seems that IBM beat them out at the last minute. I read about it
here on the
Reuters website, and it seems from this article that Sony PlayStation is the next target for IBM ---- watch out Intel!
