You mean I've still got to kill the X-Box myself? Rrgh...

Lol... nice one. Didn't believe it for a second, but the execution was quite  clever.   I would have just guessed it was an IGN spoof, but that @ thing is neat... hey, you learn something new every day!

If someone's going to get flamed, i've got one question to ask, Original Recipe or Extra Crispy?

do not torment the sleep deprived artist, he may be vicious when cornered,
in case of emergency, administer caffeine to the artist,
he will become docile after that,
and less likely to stab you in the eye with a mechanical pencil

Well Done. You've gotta use the meat scaling system in online flaming, it's more accurate, and more neatly summarizes the imaginary devastation that someone would fail to feel after one flames them...

Morons. All of you.

 That had me all the way to loosing 300$ per console?  I could not think that the fixed cost would be that much for the system if it sells for that??

Actually IIRC the actual loss per console is USD$100. The entire Xbox project is in the hole for about USD$1 billion.
