What’s next? XBOX3 uses Linux?
Translate plz.
Well it’s Microsoft’s gaming console that’s using Apple technology. Irony at its finest.

That’s basically it. The first XBOX2 development kits are using Apple techonology with a modified Windows for Mac.
The ironing is delicious.
HA. And again I say HA! Irony is –
:ulty: Uh, why’re you holding Elsydeon? It’s made out of Laconia, not iron!
So I can do THIS! [slices Ultros to bits]
…if they actually call it “XBOX2” I’m going to steal cancer and implant it into my heart with a spoon. PS"2" was bad enough. Get some new names. At least Nintendo’s still competent.
Hades, if that’s really you in your avatar, I’m gonna shoot myself.
You ugly fuck.

So far the rumors going around say it will be called XBOXNext. I’m just calling XBOX2 since there is no official name and so you know what I’m talking about (hence the XBOX3 bit). Although, the PS"2" may have helped Sony since it might have helped with brand recognition.
It’s a ninja from Team Ryouko. He’s better than your dad.
Where’s the irony? Microsoft hates and wishes to destroy all things, this is a way to strike at Intel.
Actually, if I was MS, I’d call it the NeXtbox or something like that.

*although to be fair Bill Gates is giving more than fifty percent of his income to help feed people in third world countries. =p
It was know long ago that XBox2 would use IBM’s PPC CPUs. Which is the same as G5. Apple are just the ones who started using them.
And it is only in Microsoft’s nature to do things the easiest way: So they snatched an Apple G5. Nothing new about that.
Does it really matter what the hell they call their consoles?
And don’t you dare praise Nintendo for naming strategies. Or I guess you don’t remember the days of adding “64” to every new 3D remake that came out.
Well if Sonic is on a Nintendo system why not have Microshaft use Crapple technology?
