Nothing will cool your system like an Xbox.

Sitcoms, they fill the world full of lives. I like how the picture tried to be politically and racially correct in like every way, theres like every race and theres girls and its just a culturally diverse office. i dont think that actually had anything to do with anything but ya.

I think OP tried to hard to be funny. What joel said is how I interpreted what she said, Although for PC users you think she might've explained its not actually watercooled or elaborated on the joke since its common enough around these parts.

So what about condensation and maintenance. Consoles get thrown around the place a lot more then computers, i dont think it was a good move and it made the console a lot bigger. Considering about 40% of the buyers will know how the water cooler works or even exists i think it was quite pointless and it ramped up the price a lot.

Yeah she's talking about the social aspect of Xbox one where everybody would gather around and interact with each other...but instead of drinking water and talking, they will be on the Xbox and doing whatever.

It's not going to be water cooled see the rest of the posts for explanation of what she meant.
