PS3 rumored to get a downgrade?

Really, if it weren't for the rumor, there's no reason to read the Inquirer. They really need to... well... read the article and you'll see why it's a worthless read aside from the rumor. Anything reporting "news" and utilizing leet-speak really tends to speak wonders about professionalism and character. Anyway, onto the rumor. The NVIDIA RSX graphics chip was previously scheduled to do its thing at 550MHz/700MHz as core/memory but now a rumor has started that the capabilities have been slightly reduced to 500MHz/650MHz.

So? Perhaps it's a bigger downgrade than it looks on paper (forgive the technology mumbo-jumbo illiterate) but that really changes nothing in respect to people's desire to snag Sony's new console. In addition, it's just a rumor (at least, the Inquirer fails to cite any sort of source... indicitive of rumor in PS3fanboy's book) and should be treated as such. Honestly, does this change anyone's mind about the PS3? Were you banking on that 550/700? Oh well, even if it's true, is it really that major of a difference?
