Who the hell cares? Oh wait, fanboys care. That's right MS pays them to be fanboys.

Then Microsoft should ask for their money back for the one on the left.

Phillip,
It's called a "hand-held". Somewhat different then a "console". MS doesn't have a handheld to compete with the DS or PSP.
Apples and oranges my friend.
