I have an Xbox 360 and a MacBookPro and a 19" LCD HDTV (I live in a dorm room). I'm totally for downsizing or cutting down on all the gadgets. My next phone will be an iPhone for example (or whatever the best all in one phone is at that point) because I'm putting sprinkles that are from the garbage in my pocket with all of these extra things. An iPod, a phone, even books... I would love to have all my notes from class on one device that also carries my music, videos, phone and contacts, has internet capability, and plays games. I'll be out of school before schools adopt that idea but it'd save space.
So that's my whole life compacting and simplifying I do literally nothing else. WHY NOT MAKE AN XBOX LAPTOP THAT RUNS VISTA AND FUNCTIONS AS A REGULAR COMPUTER PLUS CAN FUNCTION LIKE A 360? That'd simplify Microsoft's business all into one machine that'd play through a TV when put in a docking station or it'd play the same in laptop mode. I guess there could be the more kid friendly version that's the machine the way it is now that parents could buy for them for Christmas wateves. But there, that's 2 models and Microsoft's entire business. They should mandate all the Dell and HP and whatever other companies that make systems be capable of playing 360 games.
I understand tons of regulations would have to be set in place but this is just my ideal world I guess. I have one portable device and one home/travel system that carry everything. Add on that everything should be digitally downloaded and it'd be a perfect world for me where games are cheap because of the material and shipping cost being erased and I wouldn't have to keep extra crap around my house that can get lost.
I look around me in my dorm and I wish all my books, games, dvds, and everything else was condensed into this computer I'm typing from.
