Defining, not divining. No worries, I have those moments too.

"Divine" verb: "to discover by intuition or insight." Believe me, as many words as I punch out daily, I've got plenty of those moments. But this ain't one.

Except that he didn't "divine" anything. He attempted to define.....and in the end, only left us with more questions. Why even post?

Not the case. The only thing he attempted to define was Divine (as a verb) for poor Alex here.
The cited definition above: "to discover by intuition or insight" is exactly what Mike was doing. Illustrated by the following quotes from the article:
"We'd presume that they don't dive into software information"
"this type of information helps them determine system requirements for future games"
"I doubt any expansion is that far along in the process yet: my guess is that this latest round of hardware testing is actually being done for final calibration on Starcraft II, due out this fall."
"A few people have already speculated that they're testing the waters for another WoW expansion"
If you wanted to nitpick, "Attempting to divine..." might have fit a little better, but this use of the verb is certainly accurate representation of the content of the article.
