Cow · 10-02-2005, 04:38 PM

I've got a really hard choice to make right now...but I need some opinions.

Should I get WinXP Pro x64 and some more ram for my PC...

or

Get an Xbox 360

Opinions please

I would say go with the upgrade. The 360 will go down in price after Christmas so you can get it then

And the second production of the x-box should be without some of the errors that slipped into the first productionmodels.

Forget about xp 64 bit edition, why spend money on a program that will be replaced by vista in a year? First get some new ram and later on just get a nice game to go with the x-box once you buy it next year

Don't go for X64 unless you want to have driver problems.

It's only some 2-4% speed improvement anyway.

I would get both to be honest. Then again eventually they'll problay develope a hard drive for the 360 in the near future w/ the new windows program anyway. So to be honset for real. Get the x360, it' your best bet and it the wave of the future. :thumbup:
