The Inquirer is reporting that Microsoft may release the next Xbox in 3 different flavors.
| Quote: |
| Xbox Next and Xbox Next HD are planned for Autumn 2005, whereas the Xbox Next PC is pencilled in for Autumn 2006. |
The standard Xbox Next will not contain a hard drive. The HD will contain a hard drive as well as "increased functionality." The Xbox Next PC will be an entry level computer that will run Windows and most PC software. Other features of the Xbox Next PC are:
| Quote: |
It also includes CD Burner, Wireless keyboard, mouse and controller and will work best connected to a high-definition TV or PC monitor. Media Center functionality - like movies, music and photos - is also included. The device will also play most available PC games.
|
It sounds like the merger between PCs and consoles is happening a lot sooner than I expected. I encourage this merger since I prefer recliners to PC chairs. For additional information on the 3 Xbox versions visit The Inquirer. |
