That's right after the "deal with it" debacle, where Adam Orth a creative director for Microsoft Studios tweeted comments about how everybody should just deal with the new Xbox system always being online, he is no long with the company. Right now we don't know if it was a voluntary or forced resignation right now.

The rumor around the 720, is that two versions will be released.  A weaker version will be released that will use a version or at least bits of Windows 8 as it's operating system.
