As for IGN's article... It was a fun read, but factually it was worthless.
1) They used an AMD processor that's an order of magnitude slower than the PPC chip rumored to be in the Wii 2.
2) They only gave the system an extra gig of ram to accommodate Windows 7.
I mean, all they accomplished was showing what the PC ports of games originally designed for consoles running on a RAM starved PC with a processor that's easily 30-50% slower than the tri-core PPC.
But hey, they conned their boss into paying for a new PC. So that's cool, right?

I can't believe I missed this. The funniest part of the article was that they put a price on that 4850 of $200. Huge fail!

The only one left available in newegg.com is priced at $119.99. while the 5850 is around that price now (goes above and below it from a quick search I did).
