I remember when i had a Dreamcast i could go on the internet with it, why aren't they doing that with the XBOX?
It would be so convienient as i wouldn't have to keep going downstairs to surf the net. Who agrees?

Nah internet is for PC's, not consoles. I had a Dreamcast and although I used the internet on it a few times, it was far from being any good really. Its not as though you could save anything on most consoles and if you did, you'd eat up the XBox hard drive in a week. XBox Live is all about online gaming and should always be exactly that. No point in adding something that only hackers will tend to use so they can show everyone how "clever" they are when they balls up the service and ruin it for everyone.

I'd rather Microsoft focus their online efforts towards gaming, as taking resources away from the gaming aspect and investing them into letting people surf the net would probably have some negative effect on the Xbox Live service.
But that would bring lots of potential security risks. Too many to count and loads of updates microsoft would have to provide every day. So microsoft = lazy.
Yes, the internet would be better on the PC but they could still do it for those lazy wabbits out there like me.
I preferred the freedom of the net a PC gives.
