Why MS just don't label it a Mac?
by March 1, 2005 6:26 AM PST
They're already using a processor that Apple and IBM
developed together (PowerPC 750). We all know how MS is
concernet to copy every idea successfully developed by
Apple. Why not an iPod assembly for the Xbox 2? It
wouldn't be a surprise considering MS legacy to copy
instead of developing new ideas and concepts.

You must be a MAC Fan?

Your response to this form of vision is unfortunate and faded by jealousy.
If all we should have are originals we would only have one car model, one piece of bread and we would all eat meat.

Thanks for innovation, foresight, investments and distribution.

Someone always has to start, but that does not always mean that they win any form of game.

Make it a great day.

Speaking of innovation!

Where's the iBox?
by TV James March 1, 2005 8:25 AM PST
I recently used an OSX for the first time and was amazed at how the ALT-TAB was just like Windows. I tell you, it saved me so much time on the project I was working on.

And then I went back to my PC to finish the project after I had gotten what I needed out of Quark.

Sure, Apple's an innovator. So's Microsoft, so's Xerox. Imagine a world where cars all had their wheels in different places. (Apple would make you live with one wheel where two wheels would prove to be far more useful.)

That Xbox picture where it's a ball looks like 343 Guilty Spark from Halo.

Exciting time for gamers
by iceman2654 March 1, 2005 9:15 AM PST
I can't wait until these consoles arrive. More specifically the PS3 (although Nintendo always made good consoles). But I have to say, MS should just stop because they're always making a fool of themselves. Especially Steve Balmer.

Sure, look at cars...
by newrican March 6, 2005 10:35 PM PST
We showed Japan how to build them and now they're ahead. Can't have only one maker. But you've got to admit, MS did bite off Apple for the concept, but did a better job of marketing. BUT, I use both MACs and PCs and the PCs crash a hell of alot more than the MAcs.

Anybody notice the logo...
by brothe May 13, 2005 12:21 PM PDT
In picture 3, the logo for the Xbox 2 is an obvious slam on the PS3 because it is a poorly hidden >3 (greater than 3)

As for Mac vs. PC, PS3 vs XBox 2, Nintendo... we all have our own preferences... Why not argue about whether blonds are prettier than brunettes.. of course you'll also have the guy who likes red heads... it doesn't matter, as long as you like what you've got. Who really cares...

Xbox 2 specs are great
by wileytuten May 15, 2005 12:18 AM PDT
As far as computers go... I'm an Apple, Microsoft, Unix, and *nix Fan. I love em all! Microsoft using G5s. Very cool. I'm excited to hear about the xbox 2 sporting G5s. 3 symetrical cores running at 3.2 GHz is exciting.
All that in a small form factor is impressive.
Some may not prefer it, but I love it.
2 thumbs up on what I've seen so far!

Hmm.. I dont think so!
by RatingxDawn December 31, 2007 8:43 PM PST
i don't think I'm the only one here who thinks that, ANY of those little drawings are the consoles of any generation. And by the way. I don't think any company will be releasing anything new for a while. And if they will, my vote always goes to Micosoft. They been bringing us entertainment before anything else was even close to as good. And those were actually a little weird.. But if I would have to guess what the next console would look like, I would have to say, it won't be much different from what we've been getting so far. Smaller, thinner, maybe, but it'll still have the controller and the rest, like its been having for years.
