i'd be amazed if Microsoft followed the cell route for a number of reasons

1) huge R&D costs (added to delays turned a market leader into an also ran in 1 generation)
2) unsuitable for gaming. It's good at tasks that can be split into consistently small parts, gaming by contrast requires infinite flexibility.
3) coding difficulty. Take a gaming industry that already requires hundreds of people to code for a simple machine and add more complexity......costs are going up or quality will come down neither is wanted. It will also make your console vulnerable to simpler competitors as developers will follow the easiest and cheapest route to the market.
Just look at the PS4, longer in development, more expensive components, higher theoretical performance and yet the reality is the 360 has the best looking games. Sony make some beautiful hardware (most of my electronics are sony) but the cell is a bad idea for a games console.
[sigh] should have read the next post before trying to be funny......

I have a 3 year old I-river H320 that can encode on the fly, just plug any sound source into the line in and hit record, instant mp3. Good for ripping 70's tv theme tunes for phone ring tones but obviously the audio quality is 70's too.
It didn't actually have a bomb in it, just a detonator, you had to plug the bomb in externally.
would they engrave an apple on the back?
nice invention, so anyone with a bluetooth mobile can send farting mp3's to your cushion?


Should be a big hit with the ladies.....
Klatu, Barrada, Nikto!

i wish it falls on someone else's house ma.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"All of these new nettops have me intrigued. I'm looking for a small, quiet and cheap PC to replace my aging tower in my home office, and all it really needs to do is load Microsoft Office, check email and surf the web. Is there a particular nettop that's better (or a better value) than another? I know it's a rather new segment, but hopefully someone has taken a chance on one already. Thanks!"
