(Photos: Cracking open the XBox 360 Elite)

Two minor points...: In the seventh picture's caption, you say the console is "lined with a metal sheath to enable heat dissipation." That looks like a Faraday shield, designed to keep the console from radiating all kinds of radio-frequency garbage that could mess up radio reception, not just in radios, but phones, WiFi gear, etc.
Also, just about every digital camera has a "white balance" setting to allow you to compensate for the color of the light you're photographing in. Setting it to "Tungsten" would clear up that yellowish cast to all the photos.
Sorry to be so picky. Overall, it's very well-done, with great close-ups to show off the innards.; Posted by: kidtree Posted on: 01/16/08 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
