"Tolerance of intolerance is cowardice." - Ayaan Hirsi Ali

I've heard that xbox live is down for some odd reason, but I've also heard that there might potentially be an update for the dashboard. Any links to information plox? I've sort of been living under a rock given finals.

Yeah, there's been an update planned for now for a while, it was announced I'm pretty sure. I know a few people who were in the beta program who knew exactly when it was coming out, so that's what I figured.

I couldn't sign in or get it to tell me I had an update, until I went on xbox.com and accepted their new ToS. Then, after it updated, I couldn't sign on to XBL for about an hour. So problems all around.

Interesting.

So I simply need to log into xbox.com in order to work everything out?

Yup... & it's working now. I don't like it :(

As long as I can play a game it's all good to me, I rarely see the dashboard. These new beacon things are annoying though, wish their was a way to turn them off.

I sometimes wish that xbox hadn't changed its dashboard from the darkish grey and bright green color scheme.

I do wish they had integrated an option that would allow for us to customize our dashboard beyond simply applying different themes.

If it's not letting you download the update in the first place, yeah. If you've already downloaded it, and you can't sign in, you pretty much just have to wait.

I would love to be able to select other dashboard 'types', such as the original blades, or the first nxe version.
