Holy crap, I was wrong. The 360 does use Power PC... that makes very little sense from a "MS in your living room" stand point. I can't believe I never noticed that all three consoles are using PowerPC.
As far as your i7 idea though, the i7 cores are more advanced than the Larrabee cores. The Larrabee core is more of a quantity thing. Intel is putting these lower spec cores, that are cheaper to produce, on chips for GPUs (and maybe CPUs, if they can sell it). Dollar for dollar the Larrabee may beat it.
I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.
