I agree though, I definitely don't actively dislike the new look, the only thing I wonder about is whether they're going more for the casual/everyone crowd with this design or the hardcore/18-35 year old male crowd. Because it looks like the latter.
If it's actually coming out at 200 with a big hardrive though, that alone should be enough to put the 360 back on top of the PS3, whatever Kinnect ends up doing.
