If that turns out to be the case, then even paying $400 for a newer model Xbox might be worthwhile, as the only reason I'd even think about buying an expensive gaming PC would be for hi-end,cinematically more realistic gaming alone. Hardly would shell out that kind of money just to surf the web a tad faster :) Thanks again.
