I don't see the logic, from Microsoft's point of view, in releasing a games console that shares many attributes with PC's.

Why do it? They already dominate that market, they may as well look to encompass another industry into their empire. The Xbox, to the best of my knowledge, shouldn't be regarded as a 'pc in a box'. I can't say i've played one (although did have a ticket to a recent Xbox exhibition) but i'm someone who doesn't instantly associate the console with Microsofts previous success'.

Xbox a pc in a box? That just wouldn't sell, and there's no business sense in that.

You blatantly don't know what you're talking about and are speaking out of your bum.


So I won't bother reading anything by you again. Ever.
