ABCnews is carrying this update on the upcoming XBox2. It's from Gates himself, so it's long on vision and short on detail, but it would appear the box is going to include more "media center" features, whatever that means. Maybe The Borg is taking aim at TiVo?

Just about the only thing that'd get me interested in one is if Halo-3 comes out for it and only it. Which, considering the stakes, is IMO pretty much a given. Meh. my friend Damion owns every video game console in the world, I'll wait till he gets one.
