Yea, I wouldn't be able to stick it in my stand. It's too high for my first shelf. The 2nd shelf that houses my Pro at the moment might be able to take the height, but the width will be a problem, as it is a little wider than the Pro. Too much to one side and it hinders the air coming in. To much to the other and all the heat stays near the console itself.
I really think this is the "hot" product Jason Schreier said it was. In order to combat the resent news that some devs weren't happy with how behind MS was with getting the Scarlett info/devkits to them, they wanted something to try to show that they weren't behind. So, you got Phil saying he has one at home already and is playing on it. And you have the sudden Game Awards announcement (kind of an odd place to announce a console) where they just went with the design that they had at the moment without really thinking it through. I mean, this would work fine if you just sit your consoles next to your TV in your bedroom, but not in quite a few TV stands that are going to be in the living room. The PS5, if its like the devkit, will have no problem. Sucks in air from top center and blows it out the side towards the back. Almost like a hot rod.

If you really believe that a company as big as MS is going to, over the course of about 2-3 weeks or so, decide to rush an announcement on a product that they weren't actually ready to make, all because of some rumors on gaming forums - that will be seen by a ridiculously tiny fraction of perspective buyers - about frustrations on lack of dev kits out there…..well you're hopelessly naive, to put it kindly.

Considering they have rushed consoles out the door in the past, I think you are the naive one here.
