A Power7 CPU , even scaled down, is significantly more powerful than a Cell, and an R700 GPU blows the PS3 GPU out of the water. Either the rumors are false or this article is full of crap, i'm hoping for the latter since IBM already comfirmed Wii U is using Power7.

could you point me twords where a power 7 architecture was actually confirmed? Because I read the press release and it doesn't actually mention power 7 at all...

Power7 is inferred because of the development process (45nm), the high level of eDRAM and the out-of-order execuation nature of Power7 versus the in-order-execution of Power6 and Power A2.
