There's no need for a new Xbox, says Microsoft



http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/blog/2010/jan/09/microsoft-no-new-xbox

Personally I think this is great news as I have no interest is buying
a new console from anybody anytime soon. After some of the down sales
months last year I figured new boxes were coming sooner rather than
later, but I'm glad it's looking like I was off on that one.

Relevant quotes:

""I think it's important to say that the Xbox 360 is the console of
the long future for us. There is no need to launch a new console..."

"The Xbox 360 was designed for a long life, and I don't even know if
we're at the midpoint yet."

And a complete laugher:

"but we believe we have a high quality console"
.
