They would have to fire an insane number of people. I bet Microsoft has an entire department complete with managers, vice-managers, sub-managers, middle-managers, and vice presidents responsible for "Sparkle"
What exactly do they mean by "top developers at microsoft"?
Is this a group of developers microsoft has kept in hiding for all these years to be used as a secret weapon, or are these the same dolts who slapped windows together?
Yeah but by the time the XBOX2 comes out, a g5 systeam will not be as.. how should i put this.. tasty. There will be new systems out on the market that you will be drooling over instead.
Do you really think Microsoft cares about backwards compability? Look at their track record..
Also take a look at Nintendo; their products are rarely (if ever) backwards compatible, and it has never hurt their popularity.. Well that's a point you could argue, but I stand by it
