I hate to clutter up an already solid factual beatdown with a minor quibble, but technically we don't know that the Rackspace stuff for Sony is even dedicated servers - I vaguely remember that this was more for their PSN infrastructure stuff than to be leased back out to developers.
But other than that, I couldn't agree more with what you posted, but things like verifiable facts have that effect on me.
I was just going by this:
Sony PlayStation recently signed a services agreement with Rackspace, under which our developers and architects will be consulting and supporting the PlayStation team with their OpenStack private cloud deployment.
I was assuming that dedicated servers would come with the territory, but yes there hasn't been technically any official information as to what services the RackSpace partnership will provide PS4 devs, at least none that I have come across.
