Hit the jump to have a look (and hear my rantings) ."

Yeah thats a pretty good look. I know at some point they will give the Dashboard a Face Lift but to me it is still pretty good looking.

I think it looks messy. The one they have now is better IMO.

I Agree the Blades on the dashboard look far better than that

All I ask for in a dashboard update is for games not to launch as soon as you put a disc in. Sometimes, I want to load a disc and do something else before I play it.

The dash might need an update but i don't want it to end up like the Ps one. The whole point of the dash is to keep it very simple so anyone can find what they want and implement functions easily and quickly. Having lots of menus only complicates matters. Less is more. The Ps dash is overly loaded with icons and sub-menus and bit of a mess in my opinion and the blades though easier to navigate are not that much better. Yes after a little while you can find what you want but the dash should be intiuitive so a newcomer of any age can easily find what they want. Both need work.

To me, it looks better than the current dashboard. Its better organised, there are way more shortcuts right from the start...yeah color and design are not the best, but you can change those. The navigation itself is what appeals to me.

If Microsoft introduce a new style of Dashboard, I would hope you could revert to the old one if you want, that would give you more choice, just like how you can customize the dashboard theme, colors etc.

I'm up for a change, but I'd like the option to revert back and forth if need be!
