Sega Drops Dreamcast Price To $50

Given past articles on Slashdot on all sorts of fun Dreamcast projects, now's the chance to get one. Why not get two (in case you break one)?" See also this article on getting Linux to run on Dreamcast, and NetBSD is another option to explore. 8ight points out even more interesting Dreamcast information.

    I was just about to ebay mine. Now I have to wait until they get harder to find so I can get a few bucks for it.

    ....for that price I can buy two. One to use and one to hold up the low end of the couch!
    I think this should be modded as "Funny", unless someone really considers the fact that MrWinkey's couch is low on one end being an insightful piece of information to them. :P

    But then again, what do I know...?
