OG Dojo, one of the blogs linked to this one, has a very subjective review of the Xbox.
"The controller feels like a baked potato. The buttons have NO grip. The joysticks are TOO small. And why the hell do they have that fugly waste-of-space XBox logo in the middle? This space could have easily been used to have a Dreamcast VMU-style screen. The triggers are too far back. Not to mention the thing is a friggin' brick weight-wise.....People seemed much more excited about GameCube than Xbox. I'm not usually this biased-sounding... but man, I was really turned off. "
The collective authors of OG Dojo are game developers (I think) and fanatical players well well well under 30. If their reaction is at all typical, then Microsoft will be disappointed in the sales of their first entry into the game hardware business. On the other hand, Windows 1.0 and Internet Explorer 2.0 were dogs... but look at them now.
