This was written by Scott (aka Ferrari Man) who was one of the Co-Editors
with our publication at the time. He got to see the prototype system, and
a development rig for the CD system at the Redmond offices when he
visited the company, but unfortunately was not allow to examine any
software on it. He also told us some stories about some other wierd ass
shit they were working on such as a hands-free controller that worked
via an air-pressure driven head-rig for disabled kids... lots of cool stuff
that never made it out of the proto-type stage...
As for the situation over what happened between Sony and Nintendo
regarding the CD device, I wrote up a background piece to sort out all
of the BS a couple of years ago which you can read here:
