This article implies that the new kits have more memory than the old ones, but I don't think that's true. They always have had 1 GB, as I recall. If you don't have that extra memory, you can't run a debug version of your game, basically.

1GB DK's went live around March this year.

That's the new kit, but its just a redesign to my knowledge.

The old ones were monstrously large.  I don't think they had any less memory.


The platform holder’s new development and test kit (pictured) is fitted with twice the memory of the original.

Lol.  Believe what you will, bud.

 

IIRC the pre-release kits had 512 MB, because the 360 was originally slated to have 256MB RAM.  I don't think its been that way for a long long while though.

So the developers all lied?  The old kits only had 512mb of RAM total.  The new kits upped the RAM.  This is a fact regardless of what you believe.  I'm not sure why you think so strongly that it was always 1GB, but it wasn't and just got that upgrade recently.
