who else finds the narrow-minded people who only ever consider consoles to overpower the PC very idiotic?
ive asked around at my school and alsmot everyone who plays the console thinks that consoles are WAAAAY better than PC's - at least 'for gaming' they said. WAKE UP PPL. the specs of most top half PC's today dwarf the tiny consoles that keep spewing out of mindwarped companies. no matter how hard they try, xbox online, ps2 hooking up to modem, PC's will ALWAYS be one step ahead, be it technology, power or even looks. everything about the PC is that much better than any console out to date. THE plans for gamecube 2 or PS3 that may arrive in the future, are already out of date, for PC's are growing in power at an astonishing rate. only a few monthas ago, i saw 2.4 ghz PCs being the top spec out to date, and not only that but a few years ago, 500mhz was top of the range, and while PS2s and xbox's have showed an improvement over their previous type, the PCs will always be growing and will NEVER be out of date, constantly improving and never falling behind any petty console. EVEN MICROSOFT submitted to making a console, which is quite foolish, as they should have concentrated on improving their own OS and other small details that would ultimately make PC users lives that little more smooth.
i find it a shame that so many people have been brainwashed by the fancy ads that overrate the console entirely. but generally, PC's are usually owned by the more intelligent of society (hehe unless ure an exception, like me :) ) while consoles that simply switch on and take hours to load or do anything for that matter, belong to the young people of narrow minds.
this is merely my opinion, but im sure that other pc users out there are sick of seeing more and more people buying machines that may instantly be out of date and thrown to the back of the shelf to make way for a new improved model.
what do yall think?

lol, your mate has a system a lot like mine. mine is a 900mhz with bout 380mb of ram, and has a geforce 2 mx400 with a fortemedia 5.1 sound card - but the sort of games i play can kind of slow down, which is just crazy.
extra power wouldnt hurt, and its dirt cheap now - but it all depends wether you'd want the hassle of errors, viruses etc of a PC in return for the vast reward for putting up with it, or would you want a short-term system that has none of that?
like you said it all depends........

You can get some great deals on PCs now, I got my Pentium 4, 2.8ghz for £700 which was over £100 less than what I paid fior my last computer.
