What is the difference between a devkit and a retail xbox?

[edude03]

I'm sure everyone who doesn't have a devkit is wondering that.
Anyway care to help us find the answer?

I'm interested since my company is a small game development and design firm, though Microsoft refuses our applications for a development kit.
Therefore, we are interested in hacking our way into demoing our technologies on the 360.

Offtopic: Anyone willing to sell / rent out a devkit for a weekend?
Thanks,

Check out Assemblergames for a 360 debug/dev kit.But your not going to find someone who is going to just rent out a Xedk,your going to have to buy one.
