It feels like someone left the sink on in X3F's virtual house because our mailbox is completely flooded with news tips that claim to have spotted a slim version of the Xbox 360 in the wild.
Here's the story: while snapping photos for a gallery of the
Microsoft Arc Mouse, blogger Paul Thurrott caught a pair of Xbox 360's in the background of one -- now infamous -- image. At first glance one Xbox 360 console (on the left) seemed suspiciously smaller than the other and many believed this was a slim version of the Xbox. Since the first shots and reports on the possible
Pure slim Xbox, Thurrott has confirmed the image was only from a funny angle. To prove his point Thurrott posted a new post on his blog which included a ton of images
disproving the rumor.
Could it happen? Sure. Is this it? Naw, son!
