That's not why they need the disc. There's no technical reason you need a firmware update to stream video. Any PS store download can stream media - it doesn't need to be an embedded part of the XMB. I found out the real reason: NetFlix has an exclusivity agreement with MS that makes the 360...

I've already convinced myself that I'm not buying the next MS console. At the very least, not in the first year. First, my original XBox (1) was one of the early units that had the Phillips drive problems. So, it died on me. :( Most recently: I got bit by the Red Ring of Death problem. It was...

In a bold swipe at Microsoft's share of the office (both the office as in location and Office as in program) software market, IBM today announced the newest version of its Lotus Symphony could fully support any files from Office 2007. The kicker: Lotus Symphony is a free business productivity software...

>> Windows 7 is enough to kill Linux on the desktop The Inquirer's posted a lot of obvious troll headlines to drive up visits, but that one takes the cake. There's nothing factual in the article to back up his Linux put-downs, and he's entirely apologetic for the problems he encountered...

I doubt Microsoft will have many returns. People should be able to do a hard reset on them tomorrow, if it's just the UI crashing while trying to interpret the internal clock.
