Hosting (was UKNM: RE: X Box)

[Ken Goodisson]

I have been given a web hosting company name, 'Leighton Internet'.  With

ourselves looking for alternative web hosting, are there anyone out there

who are with them currently?

If anyone from Leighton subcribes to this forum,  I would like to hear from

them.



Would appreciate any help!


Regards

I was just wondering whether anyone had seen the tech spec for the X Box and

be able to answer, I think, the most salient and important question about

it's design: Will it have a Ctrl-Alt-Del Button as standard?

(Answers on a post-it note)


IMHO the future of the console market looks like this (i.e. more clouded

than ever!): Dreamcast has failed because it's made by Sega and although

it's got a lot of great software they never quite got those 6 billion

networked customers (oops - online fiasco alert!). Playstation 2 is

launching with, let's face it, mediocre software, a difficult development

platform, poor DVD capabilities, unfulfilled promises and supply problems

(have they fumbled it?!) and XBox is being made by Microsoft - traditionally

a software producer who cut corners and produce PC-ports (although, of

course, they will claim differently!!). Which leaves the GameCube from

Nintendo which will probably end up producing the best software, most

creative games - but in small quantities for a niche market.
