Last month I got an Xbox 360, before that the only console that I owned was an Atari 2600, and that was back in 1986 when the video-game console had gotten to a reasonable price (in Brazil) and my daddy bought me one.<o:p> </o:p> I remember playing Enduro hours and hours without stop.

Here I am, and just look like yesterday.
