Hands up how many Nintendo fans tried to s**g off the PS2 for only having 4Mb of embedded VRAM for the Graphics synthesiser chip. Come on now don't be shy, oh well all of you may be interested enough to here that in an official interview on Gamespot ATI's VP of engineering announced that the Gamecube only has 3Mb of embedded VRAM, and it is no where near as fast as the PS2's DRDRAM, which runs at 800mghz and allows a much higher bandwidth in and out of the chip!!
Shame on you all, now apologize to Bonus, then go read the full interview at the address below!!

Anyone getting concerned yet?
The GameCube will be only used to play games whereas the PS2 also plays DVD's. With Mitibushi's DVD version of the GameCube it could come out as good or better than the PS2.
It has not been made to do multiple jobs as the PS2 has.
