"We purchased a number of Apple G5's because very specific hardware components of the G5 allow developers to emulate some of the technology behind future Xbox products and services," a Microsoft spokesperson said in a statement. "This is an interim development tool that will be replaced with a more powerful and comprehensive solution later."

Hello, Microsoft?

Gamers don´t care about this.
Make a console that doesn´t crash this time. Oh, and perhaps some system-exclusive games that are actually fun. FPS´s are for pc´s, not consoles.

But nobody will get it either way because the console market is very unforgiving. If you fail once there´s no sense in trying again.

I guess they have already ordered the new Apple XStation then.


Trivia: This is not a PowerMac or an Xserve. The XStation is a new high end product line with a couple more CPUs ..
