What? The author of this article JUST SAID that Apple Inc, crippled features on the "aTV" that it's capable of supporting? For you to jump-up on the first post with some random stupid statement about the Xbox is moronic.
The bigger issue and the point of the article is WHY did they do it? The AppleTV could have been so much more had they left in those important features. Instead of being just a cute little novelty, which is what it is.
The "Why" is a good question, they should have brought out a box that was more capable at what it does rather than less capable when compared to what is already out there especially when the thing that a lot of reviewers themselves are comparing it to was primarily made for the games market rather than the streaming market. I just don't get why when Apple shipped the ITV they didn't make sure high-def high quality content hit Itunes at the same time to avoid being held up in an unflattering light to a game system.
