Why does everyone miss the point that the the PS2 is completely 128bit, with multiple data busses, whereas the XBox uses a 32bit processor with a single data bus.
Comparing just the clock speeds is irrelevant - in some operations the PS2 will outperform the Xbox, but in others the Xbox will come out on tops.
In any case - who cares about the specs - what do the games play like !!!

You'll have to ask Mr Gates that question!

yeah Wookiee's right, you have to buy the remote control. the gamecube and Xbox don't have a standard dvd player so they'll miss out on special edition sets like silent hill and magazine dvd's.
The Xbox does not play DVD's 'out of the box' - you have to buy an add-on.

who told you the x-box does not have these things, the x-box does have a DVD player, in fact its a 4x DVD drive with movie playback, and the modem is optional, it supports both cable and DSL.
according to www.planetxbox.com anyway!

The ps2 had a lot more launch games than 2, and since when has the ps2 had four controller ports? hmm...
