It's possible that the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 2 could use what will end up the same IBM CPU. According to insider Alex Albrecht, an unnamed source told him that IBM is selling the same processor to both companies. While IBM is "moving around parts" to disguise the fact, if this rumor turns out to be true, the fanboys' heads are going to be exploding in amazing fashion. Either that or they'll have to learn a bit more about GPUs and Blu-Ray in order to further the inevitable arguments over which console is better.
