I think you have missed the point of the Neo. Listen to how Sony talk about it. It a high end version of the PS4 and will be sold along side the PS4. It isn't targeted at the mainstream.

If someone really wants a high end console and is willing to pay $600 why don't they just get a PC because you can get a pretty good PC for $600 and they would already have they regular ps4 for exclusives and a PC for that high end gaming.

Why would they? They lose any advantage with pricing. The PS4 is set to become $300 /$250 and cause a massive increase in sale. Moving to the Neo would just fuck this up. How?

$500 makes more sense than $600 but its still a bit pricey. 

I don't think it'll be $600 but it won't be mainstream either. You're to hooked on Neo having to sell vast amounts and be mainstream. Sony will run with the standard until the end of the gen and it will play an important part in getting the PS4 sub $200.

If Sony want to get rid of defined generations, Sony will run with the standard for at least a few years. At the same time the Neo will be getting cheaper to build and will become cheaper to buy, at which point Sony will probably phase out the standard bring in Neo 2 and Neo becomes the new standard.
