dydahl, "X-box crashing" The Windows Experience is sure easy to port. Check out Radiant Systems AMC Theatres ticket purchase kiosk sometime. It can be more entertaining than the movie itself. The audio stutters and at least one machine usually displays a WinMedia suicide note to the consumer. I'm assuming these are prototypes due to their unstable behavior. Cheers, Norm

<< X-box crashing >> That's not an Xbox. It was a box with a preprogrammed video presentation. Some kid probably stuck his gum in it.

<<X-box crashing>> yeah, so whats the big deal. msft has made billions off of their crap crashing and the public has come to love and expect their products to do so. in fact, it is one of the reasons that makes them so great. we can look forward to patches and new releases (i.e., upgrades) to come. i do not see the problem. rocky.
