Bob, Interesting machine, but my guess is the odds are against them. They are using x86 based CPU, but not windows which would make the existing library of games open to them. It seems about as good as X-Box, but will not have the billions of dollars that Microsoft will spend promoting X-Box. And the open source model will guarantee that if the concept will become successful, somebody will build a competing box with better specs and sell it for less. Who is behind this machine? Joe
