The original Xbox, the one the MS bureaucracy left alone, was as solid as any other consumer electronics device. The Xbox 360, the one the MS bureaucracy pushed through manufacturing despite known problems solely so they could 'beat' Sony to market, was the disaster.
And that raises an unfortunate concern: did the MS bureaucracy rush this out to 'beat' the heavily-rumored first-party Google tablet?
Because user-acceptance of the schizophrenic OS may still be an open question, but it's not going to be remotely answered if this thing shows up with build problems.
