I was never such a fan of Game consoles (Sega/Nintendo), until now… The upcoming game console ‘X-Box’ from Microsoft. That is the first console which makes me think, I wanna have it!!!
It’s not available yet.. At least not in Europe. donno about US/Canada?
But I am sure I am gonna buy it as soon as it is available.

Any Idea on the cost of the unit and per game??
I read somewhere that xbox crashes all the time. A demo console at Toys R Us crashed så often that it had to be restarted every 75 minutes. Some consoles ran way too slow… skipping, picture freezing, sound problems are som other bugs…
It’s obvious that xbox got pc/software technology from Microsoft in it…
