Next Xbox to Be Full PC? -- 9:26 am CST, Update by A.T. Hun

From the "Gee, I never expected this" department, Microsoft is studying whether or not to make the Xbox 2 a full fledged PC. $599 is quite steep for a console but cheap for a gaming PC. I wonder how much DRM they would slap on this bad-boy to keep people from, say, running Linux on it. Seems to me that I predicted that this sort of thing might happen. Thanks Blue's News.

The Master comments: I was really surprised when they didn't release the "PC pack" for the XBox after some set period of time, so I guess I'm not surprised by this at all.
