With most on-the-shelf Xbox 360’s currently built on Microsoft’s third-generation motherboard, the Falcon, online sources are claiming that the platform holder has a further three revisions to its hardware in the works.
In October MCV reported on the emergence of what will be Microsoft’s fourth 360 motherboard configuration, named Jasper, which is yet to hit the marketplace.
However, the fifth and sixth iterations of 360 are already in development, according to 8bitjoystick – the site which recently claimed to have interviewed an Xbox 360 manufacturing insider.

Microsoft readying two further 360 hardware revisions
for now, this could be considered a rumor, but we might hear something about it during GDC.
this could also be the reason why MS says theyre having a shortage. they could be manufacturing these new ones already and just waiting for the current inventory to clear out.
