Pfft give it up, like Johnny consumer gives a rat's ass about that.
I think having no need for memory cards and having custom soundtracks on all my games will decide which console I buy multi-format titles for regardless of whether one can chug a few more bytes than another.

I must have missed the bit where they were fun in the first place I guess. I much prefer discussing things that are funny or exciting. When our respective consoles arrive we can retreat to the safety of our own forums and alternate between enjoying the fantastic new experiences and posting our new findings here to cries of "Wow, I have to try that" and "Woah, I might get that too" etc...
But all seems good at the moment. So i'll continue.

I think that's "tiniest".
Sorry, couldn't resist! You're welcome to say it was intentional, in which case, very funny!
I knew there was something wrong with it, but I was too lazy to edit.

Then go away and don't comment.
The PS3 has one general purpose core and 7 support cores, th 360 has 3 general purpose cores each capable of processing two threads at once.
Neither supports out of order instruction execution or branch prediction so until someone can take them apart and benchmark them no one can know which CPU is superior, not even IBM who is making them both.....
This is the only article worth taking authorative comments from about the hardware profiles of the consoles.
