Great post again, Bumidan... I do find it interesting the acceptance of people in THIS post but when you posted similar type of analysis that didn't say nice things about sony, you were a troll. Nice. Regardless, I agree completely but I think their continued struggle is primarily quality control costs. If they had a solid build the first go-round, they wouldn't have spent as much on the "periphery" to R&D the cause, fixes, etc. I know they are on their 3rd or 4th DVD drive and so on. They have spent way too much time addressing the RROD problem when they should have been focusing on cost reduction on the motherboard... Long term I don't see the current Xbox platform making enough money to A)capture back the billions lost and B)Set them up in the black for a next-gen launch. Maybe they are hoping to hang in there long enough until Media Center and HTPCs have taken over the living room and then the Xbox can go away as it won't be needed any more. (given that most HTPCs are running a Microsoft OS)

Well, legend and madskillz called it "ridiculous" but that's the same as a troll, right?

:/

 

Try this as a comparison just for grins.  Granted in hindsight it isn't as ugly as I remembered but Bumidan but fail, troll, and fanboy were common themes... Needless to say, as you mentioned in another thread, FUD is major on the rise.  People need to stop FUDding and start playing.
