Rumour: Microsoft to announce "Xbox Lite" for $100 in late 2013.

Pretty much this.

There's a good chance the current exsisting X360 4GB models will be $100 as a standard late 2013 while probably still being profitable, so there's no need to suddenly introduce a "Xbox Lite".

As for the "real" X720/Next-Box" running on Windows 9, it's pretty unlikely, this would mean it would launch Q3-Q4 2014 at it's earliest as it takes at least 2 years to produce a new Windows OS version.

I'm calling extreme bogus on this one.

Windows 9 already exists.

You're not usually one to make nonsensical one-liners without trying to back them up with actual fact or source material, so this is slightly dissapointing.

Just because Microsoft may already be thinking about and developing what comes after Windows 8 does not mean that Windows 9 exists.

Also, I find the fact that so many here believe that Windows 9 devices could launch less than a year after Windows 8 releases slightly odd.
