I think people who expect a full on console will be disappointed. There are no leaks, no suggestion if google will be going with NVIDIA, AMD or god knows what hardware and nothing else but rumours.
If it would be a full on home console, they would have to use similar hardware Sony and MS are/ will be using. If google decides to go with some in house chips or other exotic stuff, I can't see devs going the extra mile to port games to Google's machine. I believe AMD will be supplying all the next hen stuff. Having to supply google, MS and Sony would be quite a mission unless the release dates are well staggered.
Their streaming beta was quite good and I think we will see nothing more than a streaming box with potentially some exclusive games, ports etc.
Their will be probably some low level GPU/ CPU and storage to play small mobile and have some media stored but again, I don't expect a next gen competitor.
Google is just trying to beat MS and Sony to it with their streaming services such as xcloud and now.
I might be completely wrong though, but I think we all will be sitting there after the presentation and go: LoL
