Milo: Xbox Specs if you wish to compare

The XBox specs seem to get a boost every now and then. I think we'll see one more boost in the CPU region before launch. As someone else on the thread commented, the XBox will be a frozen architecture for 2 years or so.
With XBox launch still something like half a year away, imagine how underwhelming a 733MHz PIII is going to be... at launch... after 6 months... after a year (halfway through its life!).

1GHz would seem appropriate, but I doubt that will happen. In the end, poor performance compared to "real" PCs could be what kills the XBox.
