Also, HMC ram since it is finalized and set to start production by the end of this year, hopefully MS puts in more than 8gbs so the OS overhead won't be a problem.

I doubt HMC RAM, however, I am curious if another recent patent for RAM will apply to the next Xbox.  Basically Microsoft is attaching Flash RAM to SDRAM.  I can't figure out if the Flash memory is meant to store a state or act as a cache or both.  If meant to save state, that that would mean a device using the memory would be able to lose power and beable to recover from last transaction.  If it's mean to act as a cache, it could potentially provide significantly faster performance.
