I like the new interface a lot. It runs much smoother and faster than previously. It also looks pretty damn slick to boot! Finally, my player profile is worth being looked at just a little bit!
Also, have you noticed that messages being sent are much clearer now? Very crisp.. I love it. I actually sound a lot more like I do in person. very cool... |

Which is amusing, Pondering, because a lot of people online are complaining that now they sound like robots... 
I'm beginning to think I'm the only person with my own issue, though - since the update, my XBox hasn't recognized the disk for Halo: Reach. I can play Rock Band just fine, and GTA IV - but no trips to Reach for this space cowboy...

| I like it. Seems to have improved the performance on my 360 a lot too and a lot cleaner and smarter looking than the old interface. |

| I hate it, it looks absolutely terrible... And right when I was finally used to and started loving the new Dashboard they release this POS... |

Interesting that most say its smoother and faster, my experience has been quite the opposite. On the older dashboards almost everything was instantaneous. Now there's a good 1-5 second lag when doing literally anything. Its not bad enough that its unusable, but I am a little upset that I cant downgrade because of it.
Visually, I'm indifferent. Auditory, I prefer it because the sounds are much softer. Not enough so that I prefer it over the faster speed, though. |

I wanted to take this opportunity to mention that I changed my gamertag to Johnny Fehndrix.
As for the update, I preferred the angled windows. |

That is interesting. Have you tried listening to people via your television? I find that the voices are much clearer on T.V. than they are via the Xbox-Live Headset Speakers.
I think a lot of people do sound robotic, so maybe since they can hear themselves clearer than normal, they now hear themselves as they really are. |

| I've just downloaded the new Dashboard (2.2.12516.0) and my backwards compatibility (which was present in 2.1.9199.0) is gone. Completely. And it refuses to recognize the presence of any disc (Verbatim CD-R, Verbatim DVD-R, etc) to which I have written the 2007 BC update. |
