Xbox Is Nexus of Entertainment Strategy (AP)
Scott Henson, who manages an advanced technology group at Microsoft, talks about the company's newest videogame console, the Xbox 360, at a preview event Nov. 2, 2005, at the company's campus in Redmond, Wash. When the Xbox 360 debuts in North America on Nov. 22, it will still mainly be focused on pleasing the so-called hardcore gamer--primarily young men who spend hours each week tethered to a videogame console. Analysts say that's smart since the console doesn't offer enough other capabilities for people who aren't addicted to gaming. (AP Photo/Elaine Thompson)AP - REDMOND, Wash. — When Microsoft Corp. debuted its first Xbox in the fall of 2001, the videogame console was like a teenager — decked out in black, eager to fit in with the hip crowd and embarrassed to be seen with its parent company.
