PowerPC A2 is a 16 core 65 watt CPU.

It's very feasible MS could use the CPU.

It's also one of the 2 CPU's believed to be in the Wii U (either Power7 or PowerPC A2).

I seem to have to quote myself because you guys keep going on and on about a 2 8 core Power7's when there already exists a 16 core PowerPC chip.

Yields. A sixteen core Power7 chip is enormous and would cost several hundred a chip wholesale. Two smaller chips can be a lot cheaper, see AMD Magny-Cours.
