Xbox 360 Controllers

[Gary Nastrasio]

I'm a bit confused about the Xbox 360 controllers running on Windows XP.
It's my understanding that a regular wired 360 controller will work
with Windows XP. If so, how come stores such as Best Buy sell a version
of the controller for Windows that's actually more expensive than the
one for Xbox 360?

Windows:

Xbox 360:

I don't understand what the difference is.

Thanks!

Gary

Read the specs. There is software in the "Windows" one.
