    Along those lines, a friend of mine bought a video iPod and has downloaded a couple of movies, which he plays on his TV. The cost is frightful, but the quality is surprisingly quite acceptable for his 32" screen.
    I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

        Maybe 10 hours.

        8 at work (on and off; the monitor's always on, but I'm not necessarily always looking at it), 2 at home for entertainment.

        Less on the weekends, I guess.

            Hooray for an opportunity to give more money to MS. Now all I need is for someone to buy my old 360.

            Also, I wonder how soon is this "soon"... I read something before that the production of the new processor engadget claims they will put into Zephyr has been pushed off till "mid-2007".

              I don't see why you'd need to replace your Xbox. HDMI is more trouble than its worth right now, I still have HDCP syncing nightmares on my TV and the HDMI port is buggy at 1080p60..

                  I'm sure they'll make it an accessory to buy. Probably with a 60GB version also.

                    Yeah... I wonder what the price structure will be like.

                        Hopefully, they price it as the current full model now, at 499ish. Twice the HD, and with a potential HD-DVD add-on... May not be so happy for the PS3.

                          I meant the stand-alone hard-drives, since I already have an actual Xbox. It would be nice if the 120GB was priced at $100, and the 20GB dropped to say 40-50. But who knows. I very likely won't be buying the 120GB if they price it at $200 like the hd dvd.

                              As is to be expected, Microsoft has no comment on this "leaked image"

                              PCWorld helps you navigate the PC ecosystem to find the products you want and the advice you need to get the job done.

                              We contacted Microsoft representatives, who made the following statement: "We have seen all types of claimed leaked photos like this show up online and as a standard policy we don't comment on speculative items."

                                So we're already talking about enough storage space for 30 full-length HD movies. Call it 15 (half goes to other ****)

                                That's one a day, if you keep them the full 2 weeks.

                                I don't really see a problem here.
                                Because you can also download HD TV shows, which you get to actually keep. And, like I mentioned before, people also download game demos, game content, etc. Not to mention any music they might have on it.
