BUT.. the x360 is a triple core based, 1 terraflop max, 512 ram (I think) ati er.. "ultra special 3d card" (I mean seriously there is no PC equivalent to it is 3 times faster than the fastest PC card available) monster machine. It can simply stomp on my office desktop. If the x360 was a PC it would be worth $1000+ considering the x360 will cost $300+ it does sound tempting.



Unfortunately modding a x360 is not only illegal, you would also void your warranty and lose the x360 as a gaming machine. (not good)



However considering MS builds x360 could it be possible possible for x360 to run longhorn? (the new windows?) usb devices are already available so it wouldnt be hard to find a keyboard and a mouse for it.



Actually for quite some time they were rumors of a "desktop" version of x360, could it be possible that ms would pull that move? a pc capable x360 would definetily be on the top of my list.



Could we sign a petition for a "pc capable" version of x360?, you would have 2 platforms in one. a PC and a x360 in the same place.

You probably already know is possible to install windows/linux in a modded xbox (dont worry we are not going to discuss modding here) however besides the legal and technical implications theres basically no point in doing it. The xbox is a 700mhz PC 128 ram (I think) with a 10gb drive, any low end pc (1.5 -40 gb drive, 256 ram) beats those specs, even with the yummy geforce 3+ based card is basically a waste of time.BUT.. the x360 is a triple core based, 1 terraflop max, 512 ram (I think) ati er..
