Microsoft’s Satchell responds to HDMI and hard drive rumors
With all of the hoopla surrounding the supposed Zephyr incarnation of the Xbox 360 and Microsoft’s non-comment, we finally get some official word on the rumors surrounding the HDMI-capable Xbox 360.
According to IGN, Microsoft‘s Chris Satchell has said that at the moment, everything we may have seen is just a look at their “experimentation back in Redmond.” Moreover, Satchell said that the Zephyr 360 is “not really a product that we’re thinking about announcing.” The “at the moment” comment seems to suggest, though, that with enough demand Microsoft may see fit to release the Zephyr 360, or at least a similar model.
Anyway, that’s one rumor gunned down, but Satchell also had something to say regarding the rumored 120GB hard drive for the Xbox 360. Same with the Zephyr 360, this one seems to just boil down to market demand. “As we produce these services, if we see an increase in pressure that’s something that will be interesting to look at, but there isn’t any announcement today about any new configuration that may or may not be happening,” he said.
