Re: [Xbox] 8 Simple Ways to Improve Xbox Live

Uh, I could handle the browser? Got a laptop available where the 360
is but that doesn't mean it wouldn't be far, far easier to have one around
to check mail real quick w/out booting the laptop up and more.

And in a business sense, I'd eat that up with a stick because it'd open
more opportunities for what my company does (too much to explain here).

So I'd welcome the thing, quite frankly. Hell even the DS has a crappy
browser that comes in handy once in awhile!!!

And I'm on IE, clients I have are on IE, memberships of my groups are
50/50 on IE. It's far from 'dead' by any means. Doesn't mean Firefox
isn't creeping up on it with a huge hammer, but it's not up to an 8 count
yet by a longshot.
