We have the cloud everywhere; it seems every app wants to connect to something. Have you ever wondered where those apps are connecting to? Now, you can see that for yourself with a new app from Stardock, called Connection Explorer. Connection Explorer adds a visual layer to your PC, alongside an intuitive interface, alerts, and the ability to explore where your PC is headed. Connection Explorer helps you sift through the hundreds of connections your PC makes per day in both a clear and concise manner to see what's going on with your device carefully.

The only reason to really buy an Xbox at this point is if you have a back catalog and like Game Pass?

Halo announced all future titles are going to PS as well...so no more Xbox exclusives but this writing has been on the wall.
