Comment Trouble free compared to pc... (Score 1) 217

Why using an XBOX instead of a PC? 1) First of all, you wanna play a game and not spend any time configuring it. 2) Internet access will be much smoother too and you won't need a 4 year network degre to configure it. 3) Since it is dedicated hardware, the game shouldn't crash and the console will not either since there is a very limited OS in there and it's burned in hardware, not loaded into memory. 4) The game console should not cost 2000$ or more like a computer. There isn't any price yet, but if we look at the PSX2 from Sony who do about the same job, it's around 400-500$, maybe less(But since it's coming from Micro$oft, you can bet it'll be more ;-). The BIG question here that no one seems to ask is: Since Ms will get to build the console, why not build computer components too? There isn't much difference between the 2 and why not building a computer who is 100% micro$oft(Hardware and Software)? If that happen, then truly hell will have fallen on earth for many users(But it will be paradise for Teks since we'll have jobs forever!)
