Why would you want Vista on your Xbox 360?
I've actually seen a Linux distro CEO interview on YDL for the PS3, and the one thing he said was a constraining factor is the RAM (512). But he said it "isn't really an issue because Linux is just so efficient."And it really is. One of the common criticisms levied against Vista is that it's extremely RAM intensive. Gamespot says you need at least a gig to run it efficiently and at least 2 gigs to run any kind of graphics intensive app without bogging up system resources.
It's completely incompatible with the Xbox 360 for this reason. XP, maybe, but NOT Vista. Plus, why would you want Vista on 360? It's having enough trouble running effectively on PCs as it is.
And would you REALLY buy a $200 "360 version" of Vista? Really? Linux is open-source. I can download any version I want completely free of charge, partition the hard drive free of charge, and run any app I want for free.
"360 Vista Office!"
NO THANK YOU. BAD IDEA.

QFT, if that would happen it would be really bad dont give microsoft any ideas. I read somewhere that with the older dashboard versions on the 360 people are able to run linux, but if you use the older versions that means no live so i guess it wouldn't make any sense. Anyway it would be nice if the 360 could officialy run linux but why would anyone need to run that kind of thing on a console everyone here has a pc which is alot better in doing that kind of stuff.
