I have to disagree with you on this one Paul... If consoles were dead, there wouldn't be all the new ones coming out.... I for one won't have games on my PC because I know I'll get distracted from my work... and besides, I'd much rather go and sit on the lounge than at the pc to play a game like Final Fantasy!!! Besides, every kid can switch on a console and start to play a game... not so with some PC's!
As for pc being the gaming center... nup. Broadband connections to your PSX2 is going to give as much as network gaming on a PC. And the bit I'm excited about.... you can also now get a Linux kit for your PSX2... It comes in somewhere around the $150 mark, and INCLUDES a 40 GB hard drive, a USB keyboard, a USB mouse and heaps of Linux software... it turns the PSX2 into a pretty tasty entertainment console.. and with a copy of Opera/Mozilla, Evolution and Star Office running on the PSX2... who needs a bulky overpriced PC with an overpriced OS on it!!! Hell... I could even code our ColdFusion web sites on it!!!!!
