Of course! It's brilliant. By making the console's default color so
unappealing, you'll definitely feel the need to spend and extra $20 on a
faceplate that cost all of $.30 to make.

That system is butt-XXX UGLY!!! So, it didn't turn out to be the silver
gray the early photos seemed to indicate. It is kind of white but what
kind of white is that? That color looks gay, and not happy gay, a truly
faggot gay shade of off-white. Yeah, people will be real proud to have
that on prominent display in their living room. You don't look at a
console while playing it, but it is part of the furniture. Gag!

There are no differences between this pic and the earlier Engadget.com photo
of the console's front, other than the angle.

That's why they make them for PS2s and iPods.

I've heard the color described as ipod white. Seems like an odd
choice for a console but the color was probably focus group tested to
death, so I'm hoping it will look better in person.

So did you program that into a keyboard macro yet?

The photos never indicated that, you're just colorblind.

It takes a truly conflicted closeted homosexual to see "faggoty" shades of
the COLOR WHITE.

I know what you mean! Like those faggoty iPods and faggoty iMacs and that
faggoty PSX in Japan and all the other faggoty electronics that are coming
out in white. I guess you probably own one of the limited edition pink PS2s.

Consoles last five years or more, and black is already on its way out as the
color of choice for a lot of electronics components. Go to Best Buy or
something and tell me how many of the new TVs on display have black
cabinets.

This coming from the guy who has a gaming PC sitting in his living room and
some kind of fruity XXX lapboard for his Lazy-Boy.

The Xbox 360 is white because it will have custom skins and faceplates.
