Microsoft began developing the Xbox in response to the impending launch of the PlayStation 2, which Microsoft CEO Bill Gates saw as threatening the Windows PC business due to its support for CD-ROM and DVD playback. Whereas most previous game consoles used specially designed hardware, the Xbox was built around standard PC components.
