Project Natal still has a multi-processor that runs the software!

Technically, this piece contains very little info.

1. the chip that was once rumored to be included in the natal hardware and later dropped was a CPU running the software to analyze the 3d maps and build the skeleton models / aid the most taxing voice and face processing. Once dropped, the same software would have to run directly on the receiving end (PC or 360)
2. this is in addition to other chips that have to perform signal processing from the cameras - to build the depth maps - and data stream control (think simple DSP and southbridge of a motherboard rather than CPU) and that are detailed in the original specs.

This article adds nothing to the notion of which chips are being talked of. Thus, it might be just simpler to wait for the final specs in a few weeks than to endlessly speculate about not-so-technical presentations.
