3 processors?
Yes, Xbox 360 will have three processors, each running at a claimed 3GHz. Yes, we're talking 9GHz of total system juice.

LOL!

Will there still be "jaggies"?
No. Partly due to the high resolution output and partly due to the quick full-scene antialiasing the system is capable of, video should be razor-sharp.

Double LOL!

Saying that there will be no jaggies is definitely an exaggeration, however, high levels of AA can virtually eliminate jaggies;

That's the thing...

Certainly more than current games do, and at higher resolutions.

really? Well, I do suppose that 2 is more than 0 if current games are any indication.

Sure you can have more than nothing, but we're talking about "virtually eliminating" jaggies, and that requires "high levels of AA".
