It's not all bad! John Dvorak, of PC Magazine and This Week in Tech fame, has some nice words for the 360 in a column entitled "Xbox 360 to the Rescue". He calls attention to the skill with which Microsoft developed a game system with many more feautres (feature creep) but has avoided the pitfalls that, admittedly, plague many Microsoft products like Windows Media Center and Word. He writes, "I have not seen a hardware/software system this well thought out for a decade or more." He continues with praise for the games industry, "The sooner we realize that creativity is centered in the game business, the better off the entire [computer] industry will be." Dvorak is usually a curmudgeonly old contrarian, but it looks like he got it right this time.[Via MajorNelson.com]
