The the pc industry moves ahead at a much faster pace than the gaming
industry. New technology, new hardware, new software, popping out every
day quickly making your comment false. Though it has always been true
that because game consoles are built for games and that they've always handled
them better, we are starting to see many of the same functions of game
machines in our pc's. Video cards are now being manufactured with
multimedia acceleration, and 3d manipulation. Sound cards have wavetable
sound support. Mpeg cards for tv-quality full motion video. New input devices,
new software technologies, new operating systems, etc.. etc...

When pc's are shipped with upcoming MPC 3 specifications, it'll be a large
leap ahead for pc gamers. The one (and only) thing that game consoles have
over pc's is that they are cheaper. For pc's, the quality of your game machine
is only restricted by how much you're willing to pay for the components.

Later!
