Straight from IBM's official twitter account: http://twitter.com/IBMWatson/status/240241146213842944

here's another: http://www.engadget.com/2011/06/07/ibm-puts-watsons-brains-in-nintendo-wii-u/

and another: http://wiiudaily.com/2012/05/wii-u-cpu-said-to-support-8-threads-is-20x-faster-than-wii/

and another: http://gamingunwrapped.com/rumor-wii-us-cpu-based-on-the-ibm-710-express-chip/

Out of the 4 links, only the first two were any sort of 'official' confirmations.  The 4th article is simply restating your 3rd one (it links back to it, they are the same story)...  And it is based all on rumor.  Please no more rumors.  None of this is new information that hasn't been discussed on this page, anyway.

Yes...please no more rumors about the Wii being weaker or equal to the HD twins (which u seem to obviously delight upon) despite the facts that points otherwise!!!  Anyways, the last two is still be more credible than an anonymous poster from neogaf or any gaming thread for that matter.  The fact that there is official confirmation to the P7 makes anyone who refutes the fact otherwise look very foolish!!!

No one is saying that it's weaker or the same as the HD twins.  And who's delighting upon anything?  Did you read my last post where I said I hoped the Wii U was more powerful than the rumored specs in this thread?  Apparently not.  Anyway, you talk about 'facts' and 'these rumors' being more credible than 'those rumors'... they're all rumors, and I have no idea why you want to carry on when there's no discussion left.  It's a dead argument.  Oh yes, you wanted to make sure and call me foolish and use a bunch of exclamation points to make yourself feel better.  I hope you feel better, then move onto doing something more constructive with your time.

 

Unless you refute that the Wii U isn't using a version of Watson (P7), then the foolish term is not meant for you!!!  If you do then there is an argument, since there IS official confirmation that the Wii U is using the Watson/P7 architecture.  I do feel better,  and I will take your advice and be done with you and this discussion.  A person can only bring the cow to the pond so many times to drink; but the cow has to drink for itself.
