I do say Co-Processors in the same sentence, and I've been really clear about what I'm referring too. But it's the chip that contains the CPUs, der, they know they, just trying to get me into trouble.
I wish they just had some confidence in their system of choice, and could stay on threads that make them happy but then, perhaps they are hearing the same things I am, so they have good reasons to be worried.
Microsoft took a big risk adding all those co-processors. Some of which we don't even know what they do yet. It will be fantastic if they can pull it off, and still make it easy to program, through their DirectX system. So far, looks like they will be able to do just that.

Yes, you use co-processors in the same sentence but its worded in such a way that it basically says the CPU is larger in the X1, as are the co-processors. The CPU part is technically wrong, the co-processor part is unknown (on PS4). If you're talking about the entire chip then say so (APU or SoC), otherwise it sounds like you're just spreading misinformation.
These are tech discussions so it helps if people are as accurate as possible. Otherwise you just come off as ignorant.

Actually, in both reveals they say exactly the number of transistor equivalents (basically the size of the chip). You can watch the reveal on youtube if you want. Sony was very happy with what they announced. The chip on the Xbox One is one of the largest ever made. Some people do claim the largest mass produced, but I think that is stretching it bit, as there is another giant one from AMD.
It many ways though it doesn't matter what I say, cause if it's not praising a certain thing, people will jump all over me. Funny, when I said things like, "cool 8GB GDDR5 RAM" people just ignored or praised me. But when I say, "Wow, Microsoft has made some truly amazing tech." I get called ignorant and bias.
Anyway, November 22, 2013 should be a most interesting day!
