Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-06-13 Summary: Easy Setup ... Incredibly easy to setup, just plug it in. I didn't need to use the installation disc that came with it. Only thing I didn't like is it only supports WEP. There is supposedly a firmware hack available to enable WPA encryption, but I can't attest for that personally. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-05-12 Summary: Purchased for my original xbox. Works great with my 360 Elite ... I had originally purchased this for my Xbox about five years ago. I got the Elite and hadn't hooked it up yet and had been looking online for a wireless adapter when I found this one in a box. I don't know why I hadn't expected it to be compatible but I held my breath as I hooked it up. It works like a charm and is pretty much invisible to my day to day use. I rarely notice it except at night when I turn off the lights. "Oh yea" I say as I see the green blinky lights and recall the money I saved. ...more
[3] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-06-13 Summary: Works With The 360, $50 cheaper Than 360 Adapter. ... This adapter is designed for the original XBox but it DOES work with the 360. The 360 wireless adapter is $100 and this one is only $50. That alone is worth it's weight. Setup is easy on the 360, first plug in the bulky power supply adapter into an outlet. (Yet another power plug to add to my growing collection behind the TV.) Plug the included ethernet cable into the adapter and the other end into the 360. DO NOT use the included setup CD ROM! You don't need it. Once everything is connected, turn on the 360 and go ...more

Microsoft XNA Unleashed: Graphics and Game Programming for Xbox 360 and Windows
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-05-14 Summary: Excellent Text for Intermediate Level Students ... This is a very well planned book with game development students in mind. Readers who complain that the writer takes off too quickly should keep in mind that the book is categorized as "Intermediate-Advanced" and quite accurately so. I'm using this as a recommended text for a module I am teaching to diploma students and it brings them up to speed on programming with XNA. You should get this if you have programmed in DirectX and/or C++; you'll find it a breeze and be amazed by how many things have been taken care / made ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-04-29 Summary: Wow! Excellent Book ... Even for 2.0! ... At first I was hesitant to get this book since it based on the 1.0 refresh. However, I wanted to get started right away and seeing how this technology will simply continue to grow, there is no better time than the present to start learning. I have all of the current XNA Books available and this one is by far the best. I love this guy's coding style ... it is nice when an author using .NET is actually using .NET styled code. If there is only one XNA book you can buy -- get this one. I really enjoyed his perspective ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-06-24 Summary: Good XNA book. Can't wait for the updated XNA 3.0 version!! ... When i started to get serious about XNA i started looking for a good book to begin learning. Like most people (IMHO) i learn better through books and then self training than reading everything online. The Microsoft XNA Unleashed by Chad Carter is a great book as it is not merely a skim through from the top for XNA but is very detailed. I have just started and i dont think i will be done with the book very soon. I like his presentation style as well as the detail. I read all the reviews and sure some folks think it ...more

Did you know the following facts about Xbox?
Xbox is the predecessor to Microsoft's Xbox 360 console.
The Xbox 360 was officially unveiled on MTV on May 12, 2005, with detailed launch and game information divulged later that month at the Electronic Entertainment Expo.
The Xbox 360 was released on November 22, 2005, in the United States and Canada; December 2, 2005, in Europe and December 10, 2005, in Japan.
An Xbox Live Silver account does not generally support multiplayer gaming; however, some games that feature their own subscription service can be played with a Silver account.
Xbox Live supports voice communication along with video communication, a feature possible with the Xbox Live Vision.
Dashboard version 2.0.4532.0 allows the Xbox 360 to output video at 1080p and installs support for Zune and the external HD DVD drive attachment.
Backward compatibility is achieved through software emulation of the original Xbox.
Updated emulation profiles can be obtained through Xbox Live, by burning a CD with profiles downloaded from Xbox.com, or by ordering an update disc from Microsoft.
Microsoft has stated that they intend to release more emulation profiles as they become available, with a goal of making the entire Xbox library playable on the Xbox 360.
Only six games were initially offered in Japan, and eagerly anticipated titles like Dead or Alive 4 were not released until several weeks after launch.
E3 2006 was the first large-scale show after the console's launch and there, the first trailer for Halo 3, the third game in the flagship Xbox series of shooters, was premiered. Fable 2, a sequel to the Xbox's best-selling RPG, was also shown, along with Alan Wake, Mass Effect and Too Human. Bill Gates spoke of plans to integrate several Microsoft services into one entity with Live Anywhere.
Xenos contains 48 unified shader units, which are capable of both vertex and pixel shading operations. This is in contrast to older graphics processor designs which utilize separate specialized units for these tasks.
Up to four controllers are supported by the Xbox 360, in the wireless form. However, there is a maximum of three wired controllers, as the Xbox 360 only has 3 USB slots.
