Design Details of the Xbox 360?

[Hitman_Jim]

Gaming blog Kotaku claims they have some details on the design of Microsoft's next home console. Their sources say it will be a very sleek, curved unit that can be placed horizontally or vertically, like the PS2. The oddest part will be the ability to customize the unit; consumers can replace removable faceplates with different styles. Their source also said Microsoft is working hard on making it backwards compatible, but haven't yet accomplished the feat.

Thats to be expected, the current xbox is too large. AS for the backwards compatibilty... thats a much differnet kettle of fish. Take into account they not just switching CPU but also GPU architecture... its gonna be like running windows on a G5... basically and using ATI instead of Nvidia is causing problems too wrt the way ATI implements certain things vs Nvidia,
