Could this leak of an internal memo point towards a new Xbox 360 model, or is it just a renaming exercise? The memo mentions a change of name for the Elite or Arcade SKUs to Xbox Pure, with Lean and Granite console names being considered before Pure was selected. Do you think this will be a new slimline Xbox 360, or does it mean a lower price point for everyone in these lean economic times? Only time will tell, but I would just take this piece of news with a large pinch of salt. Microsoft can call it whatever they want to, as long as the console doesn't suffer from the Red Ring of Death.
