If these rumors were not true, why would they not just denounce them?? I get that they cant follow every single one, but when asked straight up about it???

It has long been their corporate policy to not confirm nor deny any rumor.    They will never give you a yay or nay ona  rumor.  They just don't.  It's corporate policy.

As for why reply to rumors at all, well, they were probably inundated by thousands of journalists from across the world.  When that happens, you release a statement.

None of those links officially say anything.  The GPU rumblings are still hearsay and IBM has said they're using the Watson's cpu, which is indeed the Power 7s.  But then again Intel said they were putting Pentiums in the original Xbox and we know how that all ended up.  Those were just the first two and if it they weren't from endgadget I would have dismissed them right away.  What I will dismiss is Wikipedia and IGN.

The information from IBM suggests it can only come from their Power 7 or Power A2 CPU's.  There are no other alternatives.

From information from AMD, we already know for absolute certain that it will come from the R700 series.   The HD 7770 would make the most sense as it is the most efficient per watt of the series.

I would have just done a "no comment" thats just me
