Which has 2 buttons to start it, the typical C- thing and a green X.

The x would boot it into Xbox mode.

I am sumfoo1 and i approve of this message.

It could be like WebTV, but with an xBox built in.
Two truly great products combined into one.

That would allow mouse and keyboard on xbox live games, giving a huge advantage.

While it's possible to do this anyway I guess, this would make it more prevalent.

the real question is why hasn't ms used their consumer base and IP ownership to launch a pc based or pc accessible digital distribution service that can be used for game match making and social networking. the allow WP7 into this market place, I don't understand why PCs aren't allowed.

sumfoo: if you mean "do I get achievements", then yes you do for "Windows Live" games. If you mean multiplayer, then yes you can play multiplayer, but it will be with other PC players, not xbox live players.

^^You can do that on a 360 with this http://store.xim3.com/XIM3_p_8.html but yes you're right, it's a huge advantage

So, how the fuck would this work with the Xbox 360 having what is basically a tri-core PowerPC CPU and everything? You would have better luck with a laptop that could run Mac OS X Tiger and still play 360 games than running Windows.
