This may not exactly be late-breaking news, but I missed this the first time around so I thought I’d put up a link just in case you did too. Bill Gates gave an interview to News.com about the future of all sorts of exciting things happening at Microsoft, and he mentions a couple interesting things, including that the next Xbox will have HD support. He doesn’t go so far as to say HD will be a minimum, but we’ve seen that elsewhere.

He also talks about music, Apple, and more. Instant messaging will be a big part of the Xbox 2. The Xbox 2 will be a full entertainment center.
