The guys from the publication Ars Technica decided to find out which is better - Xbox or Apple TV. The interesting
research turned
out (if you leave behind the stern question of the expediency of comparing the iron and the kettle), and the results are as follows - the Xbox is preferable for the average user, and here's why:
- Xbox costs less than Apple TV: $ 100 versus $ 300;
- Xbox supports playback of formats such as DivX or WMV;
- finally, the Xbox is also a game console.
Conclusion: the unique “apple” design is not the most important thing. The functionality of the Xbox, which is undoubtedly much richer (thanks to, for example, the same
Xbox Media Center ), is put by many higher than beauty.
