I don't know how much of this is true but it would be pretty crazy.
An IBM 64bit chip, with an ATI graphics card. Quite a change from the origional setup. I wonder how Intel and Nvidia would feel about this.

No matter how impressive the hardware is, unless M$ solves the problems that plague the X-Box now, this will be just as big a flop.
1. Lack of good games, only now are they starting to churn out decent ones
2. Fan loyalty of the Playstation. No matter how good the system or games are, there will always be a few who wont switch over. While this may be a small number of people, these guys are also the early adopters who are key to selling a product.
3. Lack of development. Very few publishers are making games for the X-Box. Yes its starting to pick up, but how long ago was the X-Box released? Yah thats what I thought
These things all feed on each other, so unless they can offer some damned good games (ie more than "Halo X") they're going to lose as much money on this one as they do on the first one.
