Its because that think is a literal tank, was considered a gigant if you compared with other consoles of the time, and it allowed 1TB of memory if you know it how. The only problem the console had was the clock capacitor wich killed the console from inside, making imposible to repair if you waited too long, thanks to this video and a little help from 4chan I could repair my Xbox before it was 2 late. Anyways I have to full fixit because I didnt clean it at all and the disc driver still doing weird things, so I have to see how to full repair it anyways (Plus Im a monkey with a wrench and fucked some screws, aluminium and get rid of 4 screws and one of the aluminium of the lector because Im a fucking disaster. Anyways. It works again, almost proberly when I give it for dead. Remember. Change the clock or remove it. Depending of the version you just cant remove it so please, search guides and info. And dont be like me. Try to put everything where it have to be.

@@haddoxnh Hilarious enough, yeah it is! So the original concept for the Xbox was an silver 'X' shaped console that was named the "DirectX Box." Bill Gates, the board and some of the team members were like, "That's ridiculous, we need a better name and a nicer looking console." So they went back to work on the device and shortened the name to reflect the system it was running...and that's how Xbox came to be!
@iriemonmon4 жыл бұрын
@@diazdante188 For sure! So a couple of engineers on the DirectX team wondered if they could build a sole gaming device to test their new software. It was merely out of curiosity and if I remember, I don't think they meant for it to become what it is today. Anyway, so they took a PC tower, disassembled it, and started playing around with component placement to see if they could make it more compact. (Also, if you notice from this video, the production Xboxs' used PC parts! Since Microsoft was still strictly software at the time, they didn't have a lot of proprietary hardware like they do now.) They got really invested in it and took it more seriously. Other teams and the board found out that it worked, and from there Microsoft decided that they wanted to move forward with selling the idea. The other cool thing is that this Xbox was the first American console to come out after Atari's last few releases.
