    Last time I checked, whenever there's publicized info on unreleased Microsoft stuffs, people get into trouble. Remember what happened with that bunch of people who posted screenies of Longhorn?

    But I tend to believe that they've done this at the behest of microsoft marketing department.

    I don't know that Bill wouldn't be smart enough to recognise the fact that the mod industry is far from hurting him but making his console more popular.

    Not really wanting to bring this debate up again thanks though, I am well aware of what others thinks on this matter.

    Back to the whole marketing thing. Think about it, slashdot has been inundated by 360 reports lately and things are drying up, so they release just a tad bit more information to keep people coming back.
