Microsoft’s Freon project is an Xbox, with extras | |

| Time: 12:57 EST/17:57 GMT | News Source: MSNBC | Posted By: Byron Hinson | ||

Though it is unclear whether such a product will ever be built, its core concept appears to have the backing of Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates, who wrote in an internal memorandum in January that he was a “big fan” of a machine that would combine video services with gaming. | ||
