I agree that's a pipe dream..  But something 50% more powerfull than the ps4 with disc drive sold seperately could easily be sold for $399.99 next Christmas.

Actually it couldn't, if higher end software "50%" more powerful than the ps4 could be made for the same price, Microsoft and Sony would be making a killing on hardware, they're not because the components are still expensive, and higher spec components are more expensive still, to make something 50% more powerful than the ps4 you're looking at a BOM per unit of at least $600 to build something to the spec of what the latest nonsensical skylake stuff is claiming, BOM wouldn't even play a part in it because the hardware to outspec a top of the line GPU and cpu doesn't actually exist. (Hint: its why they're called top of the line)
