ATI Guy ~ Re: Sony's PlayStation2It would seem to me that the names of key suppliers for system components would be made public well before the release date of the actual product. Typically, these announcements coincide with the beginning of the manufacturing process. I have tried thru various searches to determine who the graphics chip supplier is but I have come up with nothing. Still, this info. must be out by now. I can't see why supplier secrecy would be needed once the product design is confirmed for production.
In the meantime, everyone knows about the product launch on March the 4th. Somehow I don't see Sony cutting the red ribbon on launch day and then reading an "Oh, by the way...here is a list of component suppliers" roll call. Of course, I hope I'm wrong, but I don't think so.
