You sound excited. :)

I like the modular nature of the parts inside the PS4.
It is very neat inside with no cables dangling about.

The second video features Mark, Andrew and Shu speaking about how they've come together and assigned Mark to lead the PS4 and a little talk about Knack.
PS4 also features a secondary smaller designed CPU dedicated for low-power withdraw when in stand-by mode. You'll see the full 16 chips for GDDR5 which were essentially placed around the CPU to unleash and take full advantage of the GPU - smart choice over a regular DDR3 memory (eyes Microsoft).
Ah man ... a week and a day until this behemoth console is released.

Almost all ram chips placed such so the length of traces on the PCB are matched: the distance electrons have to travel affects timings.
GDDR5 have much higher latency than normal DDR3 but also higher bandwidth. Suitable for GPU use.
DDR3 have less latency(tighter timings) but also lower bandwidth. Suitable for CPU use.
