I hear this thrown around a lot and it has never made much sense to me. After living in Europe for a little over a month now I can safely say that a euro goes about as far as a dollar does in their respective areas. Which is worth more internationally is only important to those traveling internationally. What I am trying to say is you would have to give up an equivalent amount of goods to get a 360 in both economies if the sticker price was the same number. It will make more money for Microsoft in the end if it is sold in euros rather than dollars, but it won't hurt the person buying it anymore.
