If you were hardcore enough to mod your 360 to have an HDMI port, then good for you! For those still thinking about getting a 360, the next revision is gonna be pretty sweet.

Here's a bit more about the news published earlier about the Xbox 360 'Zephyr' prototype with HDMI port. It's the 2nd time a HMDI picture leaked (1st time here if you missed it) and it looks like there are still many people that don't (want to) believe it ... so I guess it's time we come clear because Microsoft doesn't and we think you as customer has the right to know what's coming.

Microsoft still refuses to acknowledge it ... this is what they replied today to several news outlets:

"We have seen all types of claimed leaked photos like this show up online and as a standard policy we don't comment on speculative items."

[...]

No, it's no retail Xbox360, it's a prototype board ... but Microsoft had to design a new scaler chip named 'HANA' (replacing the (analog-only?) 'ANA' chip found in current retail and dev Xboxes), I doubt they'll do that effort for nothing. You will also notice several other changes to the motherboard.
