    I'm really not impressed by those specs in one way and in another I think it's the right way to go. Really the jump in graphical power to the next generation isn't all that much since PC gaming tech progress has slowed down. I like the move to more power efficient hardware which will keep the electricity bill down and stop a reoccurrance of RROD or YLOD. Also hopefully the price will be reasonable as well. Seems to be plenty of RAM on on these machines as well.

    If true

    Dedicated OS memory, that's brilliant and combined System and graphics memory as with the 360.

    AMD are suing over some nvidia nex gen console "theft" after some of AMD employees changed sides, so we'll learn a lot in the coming months.

    AMD listed next gen consoles in the court documents, no other details but whatever's happening it's at least involves them.

    I imagine those documents relate to tech used in their low heat mobile graphics that effect their laptop graphics and maybe desktop too AMD have the consoles sewn up next gen anyway :)
