If I didn't know better, I'd say that dor...@onlineinnov.com (Dorsola) posted this message: >No... you just have to buy a new console when it comes out and your >favorite games makers stop supporting the one you have now. Either >way, it ends up being the same difference. However, you can usually >get more out of your PC. Lemme just clarify what I said here: However, you can usually get more out of your PC by being able to use it for applications OTHER than games. I use mine for all sorts of Internet communications, word processing, spreadsheeting, programming and games. All told, I probably use it only 30% of the time for game playing, even though I have a 3D accelerator in it. Now, for comparison's sake, my roommate and I also have a Super Nintendo and a Sega Genesis, and we don't use either of them at ALL, even though the SNES still has some really cool games. I also have the ability to rent an N64 whenever I want, but quite frankly I think most of the games I would want to play are best found on the PC. -------- Matt Kellner (aka Dorsola the Dolphin and KitFox) http://onlineinnov.com/dorsola Featuring the Tech Support FAQ and Dorsola's MIDI Collection!
