   While I agree with everything that you have said, that still doesn't   
   rationalize all the anti-Sony crap.  I don't own a PS2.  I haven't used my   
   own PSP for anything other than a vacation movie player.  I play my 360   
   almost exclusively.  I don't plan on getting a PS3 and if I do get a Wii it   
   will only be for my son as I don't really see a lot of interest in it for   
   me.  With all that, I would feel like a total jack ass fan boy if I felt the   
   need to flood these groups with anti-Sony crap.  We all know Sony has   
   screwed up but only a complete dumb ass (like Jonah) would believe that   
   gaming would be BETTER if there was only MS as a next gen console and the   
   Wii (which doesn't even match up to current gen).  That is just stupid.   
   Rooting for the demise of a company in which you have not financial interest   
   is asinine.
