"" There were also indications that the hardware is not entirely stable yet - a crash during Nightcaster revealed a familiar looking PC boot screen, and a Microsoft representative explained that the memory configuration on the floor models was different than that of the final version.""

This is bad for MS, but it\'s still pretty funny.  Bugs are to MS as delays are to Nintendo ;).

I can see it now.

MS guy: As you can see the X-Box is really good.

some guy at E3: Hey is that a BSOD?

MS guy: *turns around* huh,err no that is uhhh.The start screen for the game see it says press button right there.

the E3 guy: No it says press any key to restart

MS guy: You read it wrong

Er guy It also says Fatal error

MS guy: That\'s the name of the game.

E3 guy: I thought the name of the game was Nightcaster.

MS guy: They changed it....shows over.Go away.

Hehe, that\'s pretty funny.  But let\'s not get ahead of ourselves, Microsoft has already announced the solution to this problem.  Just like Nintendo changed its controller, Microsoft is adding three buttons to the back of the controller that should effectively solve everything.  After deciding against square, triangle, and circle, Microsoft decided to rename them control, alternate, and delete...

This is not unique to the XBox. ALL consoles experience crashes at this stage in the developement.

The same was ALSO true for the PS2 during early demonstrations in game shows, eg;

http://ps2.ign.com/previews/14006.html

"At E3, many showgoers wondered why Sony had decided to make Unreal Tournament such a selling point of its PlayStation 2 exhibition...but the extremely slow framerate and frequent crashes were certainly a factor as well. The display proved that Epic had the game up and running on PS2, but that was about it."

http://playstation.hotgames.com/features/172/features_2.htm

"Graphically it\'s shaping up well, with character models that seem to match EA\'s NHL series polygon for polygon, and a smooth frame rate...Worse, the game completely crashed the lone PS2 it was running on while we were playing. It\'s too early to pass judgement on this game, but Konami had better put the pedal to the metal if they want to get this one out the door before the start of the season."

Hmmm..... :)
