>MS put a lot of money into the project, dont expect them to pull out yet.

Oh I don't, I'm just wondering how far they will go (should it not take off anymore) and how much they will spend to make it successful.

>I would say they are waiting to get the online network running before making any decisions.
>Their offering looks a lot better to me then what Sony is planning, and if they can back it with some games then it should take off once everyone wants to start playing online.

They are taking a brave step with the online approach and if it works, they will come out on top, but if it doesn't, it could be the final straw.

What worried me (even though I don't own an X-Box) is that they have already announced X-Box2!

That's like MS releasing .Net and then a few months later hyping up another new project that steals the thunder from .Net and replaces it!
