OMG… I Just Realized…

April 12th, 2007

After my most recent rant on the evils of the HTPC monster, a really scary thought popped into my head. Xbox 360. Microsoft. HTPC. Gene’s Xbox shipped back. Major problems all over the world… Holy crap! I’ve let the Monster of the Gates back into my living room without knowing it! And I LOVE my Xbox. It’s a set top box so I have this false sense of security about it. I feel like it is bullet proof. That it’ll last forever. That it will actually do what I say in a way that makes sense. But now… I’m not so sure. Every time the hard drive spins, or there is a little extra fan noise, or anything… I’ll wonder. Will it self destruct? Will it eat all my saved games? Will it transform into a little robotic bipedal creature with a laser pistol and try to take over the world? Will it? I think I’ll build a cage around it… just in case…

    I know what it will do… Both our boxes will wait… patiently… until we’re at the very end of the game. Then they’ll crash and erase our progress. Simple. Easy. Pure evil. Microsoft.
