The most interesting, and most anticipated, computer for the 2005 holiday season isn’t often thought of as a computer at all, and it isn’t made by a computer hardware company. It’s the Xbox 360 game machine, and it’s made by the world’s biggest software company, Microsoft. This second edition of the Xbox, which went on sale Tuesday, is both more capable and more refined than the original model. In fact, the Xbox 360 is the most powerful computer ever sold specifically for gaming.
