I thought MS was significantly embarrassed by how easily the xbox was being hacked. The specs here, in large part, seem addressed at closing down those very hacks.
It could well be that they knew the xbox would be hacked and released it anyway.

Yeah, wonderful theory -- specs for PC hardware that can be trusted by "premium content providers", to implement a "Secure PC" patented 5 years ago, are addressed at closing down a game box "hack". I wonder how Mr. Gutmann missed such an obvious relationship and wasted all that writing about Vista.
