   My bad. :)  Still.  I mean, sure, I spent $400 on an Xbox 360, but I have no   
   intention of buying the HD-DVD add-on.  Some of us are on a budget. I still   
   hold to the dream of a universal gaming system...one system, no proprietary   
   BS.  Imagine, if Sony, MS, and Nintendo collaborated (yeah, I know) on a   
   system, they would each get 1/3 of the hardware market profits.  Then it   
   would come down to software.  And since you wouldn't have to buy 3 different   
   systems to play the best games, gamers would be more likely to buy games.   
   Ahh, pipe dreams.........
