their cameraphone at Microsoft's Xbox360 Revealed launch party in Los
Angeles last night. Also note the presence of a hard drive attachment up
top, the white controller, the Xbox Live headset, and what looks like that
EyeToy-like camera peripheral we've been hearing about."

OK, estimation class 101:

1) Can you see the slot that takes DVD discs?

2) Now, assume that the slot a little bigger than the disc itself.

3) Holding a disc in your own hand, realise how retarded your comments are.


Of course, if the slot is somehow much larger than the disc, then my
estimation is wrong. But then I did start my thread with "Looks" and not
"Is".

Why would you assume this? I think the class you took was "Baseless
Assumptions 101"

No his comment is a fair question.

Thus your whole hypothesis is pointless and without merit.

It's not really pointless if my POV is opposite to the other posters.
By implication , you are saying that the OP was pointless and are saying
that all speculative posts are pointless.

We therefore reach an impass, where all we can discuss on here is cold hard
facts.

Are those your rules?

Even opinion is based on something. And cold hard facts trump opinion. If
you simply want to state it looks smaller because you think it looks smaller
then fine. But you mentioned your reasoning was based on the size of the dvd
tray opening which you yourself admitted we have no way of knowing the size
of from the picture. The other poster just questioned your reasoning to
which you responded he was "retarded", when in fact his opinion was every
bit as valid as yours, if not moreso. You were stating you thought it looked
smaller, he was simply stating there's nothing to really indicate that and
he's right. That's not to say you might not be right. But then opinions are
like assholes right?

He said "And you know this how?", when I didn't say that I knew anything.
