• Remember developers! : Currently X360 and CELL architectures are alien to PC architecture and make things more complicated. Making console like original Xbox was would bring more developers as using the system would be very easy for anyone who has programmed anything(After all you always start with PC.).

Excellent point - Developer supprt is critical.

That said, you have to give Microsoft credit in this department. The Microsoft programing tools and libraries are superb. Try using XNA and you'll see that building games can be done at home.

I think the point must be to maintain this level of Developer support.
