if this is it, i like it.

a little to retro(looks like a lamp stand from the 60's), but looks
promising.

If your purpose in posting was to come across as a complete illiterate and
babbling idiot, let me be the first to congratulate you.

Man, that is BUTT UGLY! What the frick are you babbling about? That is
the DVD tray, simplewit. Good thing they are sticking with the Vomit
Green. Have to say, this time around, everything fits the way it
should. Stealing Revolution from Nintendo with XFLop Full Circle,
sticking with the Vomit Green, producing a box that is even uglier than
the original, multiple configurations, inclusion of WebTV, micro-penny
XFLop Dead, the list just goes on and on. I am running out of tears
from laughing so hard, hahahahahahahahahaha!!!

What's butt ugly about it? Let me guess, you still have a VCR with 12:00
still blinking at you house and throwing away your tape player is out of the
question . . . I don't care if my new XBox looks like your butt face, I would
still play with the new game play it promises . . . freaking moron, you
didn't make fun of the PS so I guess you are closed minded to anything "Blig

I was going to say that you should buy the XBox now or if not soon cuz' of
the possible drop in price before the end of the year . . . but with the
rumors of XBox 360 being backwards compatible waiting is a good option, a
long suffering upseting as all-get-out option.
