"Surely Laptops will make Consoles obsolete"

What's the point of having a console if you have a Laptop PC?

Surely the future is in Laptops, especially if they become essential school kit.

The only argument I can see against them is the three weeks it takes to rebuild the system after installing a joystick.

This is sadly not the case. Only you and me still use them.

If Tony likes me I can tell people I have friends (well, A friend anyway...) in high places...

Ah, my messenger broke down and I lost most of my contacts and I can't remember half of their e-mail addresses.

Yeah, for those who are rich maybe.

Consoles=less money, instant access, easy multiplayer.

Macs=very good computer, but then BMWs are better than Mini's but they cost more.

Heh, I can pretty muchy agree to that. Fury 3 (Old, I know) is on mine, and everything else rreally wouldn't fit! ;)

SO how are you PK? Long time no talk!

Mac's are the future of PC's.
Especially iBooks and G4 Powerbooks.

When the G5 chip is released, I will not be silenced. :)

Surely you should be promoting consoles... you do sell em after all...

Spose you sell laptops too... meh. Well we've now got some new laptops for school. Best thing about PCs is the mouse/keyboard combo is excellent for certain genres (FPS, Point and click, strategy, certain styles of RPG...) but the mouse bit isn't on Laptops, you have those little pads... which I don't like half as much as proper mice... when I first got Tiberian Sun when it came out our PC had just the minimum specs to run it, but for some reason wouldn't (some RAM being used by background programs I think...) and I had to use my dads laptop for it... was glad about playing the game, but the mousepad thing killed my fingers...
