The current source I am inclined to believe based on track record says PS4 is Spring 2014, AMD CPU+GPU.

Except that America is the largest market for video game HOME consoles, and Home consoles only launch during the holidays in America (Sept - December).
They never launch during the spring.
So it's either HOliday 2013.....or HOliday 2014.

We will see. He was by far the first to say that all 3 next-gen consoles will be AMD.

1. Who's he?
2. The GPUs of all 3 manufacterers are going to be from AMD.....but Not the CPUs...IBM's still doing the CPU's of Nintendo and Microsoft's upcoming consoles.
3. We've known this for a long time.....so again, Who's he?

Here is where he said every console GPU will be AMD, in 2009:

Here is where he said one of the PS4 and XB3 will be all-AMD, March 2011:

(he had said at the same time Nintendo would be a slightly improved Wii, upclocked IBM CPU core and new AMD GPU, which turned out to be true as we know)
Here's where he says XB3 will be all-AMD. In May 2011 he said MS was deciding between an IBM Power CPU and an AMD one, hence also confirming that he knew PS4 was all-AMD in at least March 2011.

Sounds totally credible.(If this sounds sarcastic, it's not.)
So where would the next Xbox be against the PS4 right now? We're expect final dev kits to be delivered by summer 2013.
From what I understand from that last article, they were having trouble creating dev kits right? So it looks like they'l miss their intended September 2013 plans.
Could they still make holidays though? Or does that push it into 2014?
