    Naw I'm no fancy shmancy programmer from tha Valley like my colleague here -BAKCKAAAK- but it seems a trite odd that this Xbax 2 won't play Xbax 1 games because has something called a PahwaPC chip. Yet, -BAKCAAK- it can play PC games fahne as the day is braght? Now being the simple country chicken that I am, I may not know what an Xbax even is. But I humbly submit that something smells in the kitchen and it ain't momma's cooking. The Inquiahah is not exactly a shahnin example of what they call in the big city "journalistic intagratah."

    My case -BACAKAAA- rests your honah.
