@cbae:

I think I have a right to comment on the idiocy of the idea that someone would buy an Xbox 360 for "multimedia". It's just terrible for that purpose. Using it in such a manner paying an subscription fee no one else has to pay, and buying a huge "box" that makes a non-trivial amount of noise and takes a lot of power. And it costs 3x as much as similar products. Horrible, horrible set up box.

Xbox 360 is a great video game console. If it didn't have to support high end graphics it could be the size of a Roku or Apple TV and maybe cost as much too. You can get these products for $99 (or less) without a $15 subscription fee. That needs to be stressed in retail stores to anyone who is considering buying an Xbox 360 and isn't planning on gaming.
