eh, if they are going to be making it cheaper in hopes that more people will also buy kinect with it (as in kinect is going to be the primary focus), i'm going to be skipping the xbox720.
This. Absolutely. Same for the PS4 and the Move.

As long as the next XBOX is appropriately powerful for a next-gen system and the Kinect continues to be an add-on, then I'm not really worried about anything. It'll still have all the games that I want.
Sounds like they're dropping AMD chips for graphics, and they're not going with nVidia stuff either. This could be bad for it's performance ...
Interesting if true. Didn't MS lose money on the original XBox and the 360? Why won't they this time? Will it just not be as big of a step in power? The link is blocked here, so if any of my questions are answered in the link, sorry
The OG Xbox lost money. The 360 is profitable now in part thanks to LIVE.
I take from this rumor that the next Xbox is going to take a page from Nintendo's Wii-U - namely being a slightly updated system from the 360...
But 360 lost money per console during the initial sales too I'm sure.

Nope, completely different, with ARM based processors to reduce cost. Something like a Zune HD.
I occasionally play online, but not often enough to justify the cost of Xbox Live. Combine that with the lack of good exclusives (it's pretty much Halo + Gears + Forza) and overpriced proprietary accessories and there's no way I'm buying another Xbox. The only reason I've kept mine is I already have a bunch of games for it and it would cost too much to swap it out for a PS3.
