Thats certainly an interesting way to do it, guaranteed to get all the glory and details can be kept secret...but no prior processor hardware experience.
Maybe they will copy architecture of current chips...I know they have a lot of money but would it be cost effective to get together all the expertise, factories and systems to do all this.
Still they didn't get where they are today by just accepting what they got!
will this be both the cpu and gpu, or just the cpu?
I wonder which cpu guys MS will be poaching then?
If anyone has the resources to pull it off, it's microsoft.
i'd imagine they'll just buy some hardware company up. theres hundreds around - a friend of mine works for a subsidery or creative, and you wouldnt believe how many low-level programmers that place has kicking about

Design - of course, I can see them doing this.
Manufacture - um not so sure, unless they happen to take ownership of a fab company that's already doing it.
