After how things went down at the start of this gen, MS would be pretty foolish to let Sony get the jump on them again in terms of power.

It isn't a matter of 'let', though. Once the hardware is crafted, it's done. Now, they could always pull an X1X later, but at this point, very little change will happen in regards to specs.

The most we can expect is a possible clock increase for CPU/GPU/Ram pending thermal and power headroom... It's happened with consoles in the past via a firmware update.

^What Versus said. Xbox was so named because it was the first console to use Microsoft’s DirectX technology from PC. The goal of the project was to make a console that was easy for PC only developers to port their games to, a goal which was ultimately successful, with MS luring in quite a few formerly PC only developers to the system, including Bethesda with Elder Scrolls 3 and BioWare with KOTOR.

False.

Dreamcast used Windows CE and Microsoft's Direct X.
