the xbox uses a pentium III with a suped up geforce 2 chipset. that's ancient as far as today's standards are concerned. consoles just don't have the operating system overhead that regular pc's do. the chief console advantage is that you turn it on, and it works; no windows update, no viruses, no "you have an error in VxD:484651651654" [blue screen of death]. until microsoft comes out with an OS that works all the time with no glitches, and computer manufacturers stop making computers with shitty graphics chipsets, consoles will always have a market.
