What OS does the Xbox use ?

Damn, that was quick. Thx :beer:. I thought it was windows from the lags. My n64 never did that 🙁.

because the windows source code is just copied and pasted from an old buggy pre alpha version of the original linux kernel?:evil:

your n64 also had cartridges, which are faster than DVD's, and had to load a LOT less data.

I wonder if the new Power4 XBOX2 will use OSX! 😀

you mean, BSD kernel + tons and tons of bloat? no thanks😛

It'll run MS-Linux 😀

Its running a winkernal for the powerpc processors. Microsoft is idiotic though...they need someone like me to slap them on their head whenever they do something stupid. They should have MP'd some Athlon 64's

Yeah. DVD (or CD) reading is much slower than accessing a cartridge. That's where the lag is from.
