Can you link me to where the original Xbox had 128MB of ram? The official technical specs have it listed at 64MB. I know some people upgraded, but the stock version only had 64, AFAIK.

It had 64MB of ram, but in 128 mbit (16 MB) chips, with 4 chips for a 128 bits channel. 360 has 8 chips, each 64 MB (512 mbit) , for a total of 512 MB in a 256 bits configuration. Each chip has a 32 bits channel.

Ah, I see. At any rate, though, one should still assume that due to Moore's law, we should see a significant increase from last generation. Moore's law is doubling every 18 months, give or take. 6 years would equal 8 doublings, which should mean a pretty notable increase.
