Oh my, aren't you angry.

Well don't worry. All shall become clear.

I've been looking at the "winners" of the past console wars... and I've come to a conclusion.

If your console is made from black plastic, then it's going to get blown out of the water.

Don't believe me? Let's check the facts.
NES [Grey] vs. Master System [Black] Winner: NES
SNES [Grey] vs. Megadrive [Black] Winner: SNES, but not by much.
Saturn [Black] vs. PSX [Grey] Winner: PSX
PSX [Grey] vs. N64 [Black] Winner: PSX

And even though the Gameboy used four colours, all of which were grey, and the others were WAY advanced...
Game Boy [Grey] vs. Game Gear [Black] Winner: Game Boy
Game Boy [Grey] vs. Lynx [Black] Winner: Game Boy

See what I mean? Not convinced still?

32X [Black], Mega-CD [Black], 64DD [Black], Turbographix-16 [Black], Jaguar [Black], Neo-Geo [Black]

All failed machines.

It could be the other way around, saying that only grey machines are the best...

Your opinions please.

The coolest ISP ever!
In my opinion, the ISP is the best I have ever used. They guarantee 'first time connection - everytime', which they have never let me down on.
Wonderful...
... and so easy-to-use even for a technophobe like me. I had my website up in a couple of hours. Thank you.
