well, unleashx hasnt been updated in 3 months or so either. The only reason the next release is coming out pretty soon is because unleashx wont have time to work on his dash for a few months in the future and he knows everyone want it anyway, even though its not what he wants to release.
Thats where the MXM's advantage shines... progress will still be made even if BJ take a vacation for the next 6 months. (though some serious bugs still need fixed).
I wasnt going to comment either, and chillin was reading my mind or something.
I just want to add the one comment that everyone who has followed or tried the dashboads already know.
Development starts somewhere. It started with Evox. That dash was everything...yet now considered to be nothing. MXM gave you mulitmedia eye candy, extensive skinning, the most advanced dash scripting available, avalaunch gave you in-dash file manager, avalaunch gave you in-dash saves, and specifically xlink support. (keeping the list short ok)
The dash generations actually look like this:
1. Evox
2. MXM, Avalaunch, nexgen
3. unleashx
So does UnleashX look professional, look refined, provide what most other dashboards may or may not provide? does some of those things better? provide innovation beyond the other current dashboards?
Yes, it should. It's a third gen dash, more resources, more knowledge and more helpful advice/info were available from its conception.
Point being, You cant blame a 69 mustang for not having airbags, and if you want airbags...buy the current model. (or better yet.. get them from this scene, cause its full of airbags
![blink.gif](http://forums.xboxscene.org/html/emoticons/blink.gif)
).. or what till the next mustang comes out.
Unlike most other dashboards though. MXM gives the user, or community, the ability to extend its abilities. Which is most impressive and will enable mxm to survive beyond its developer or its final release.

I'm just saying, it saddens me to see people feel like BJ has forgotten about them... |
Its saddens me that they dont contribute themselves, that their willingness to participate in a forum is for the sole purpose of bashing and requesting. Not providing ideas, ways to make something better, or just words of encouragement. Isnt it more like they forgot about BJ and just think about thier wants and desires?
Again, how many people complain to Ford that thier older cars dont have airbags? and thats not meant to say that MXM is old.. its not, its not even 1.0 yet. even if it was... older perfomance cars kick ass.
btw.. i have 3 xboxes, all thre have mxm as primary, and evox as secondary via x-select. I have 5 friends that use the same. Its not the user base that is hurting.. its the people that feel the have to voice thier opinions like "MXM is never updated so im using something else.. [read as thumb up ass and brain in toilet with the purpose of the post being "what can i get out of it"]"
It doesnt take a scientist to use actionscripting... it publically documented in this forum, so there is no excuse... people just want shit done for them with no effort on thier part. Thats fine, but it would also be fine to not complain unless you are contributing.
