Might the fact that the less costly console appears in more affluent homes tell us something about the target market and priorities of those who purchase these machines?
Also, why no numbers for PC, only rankings?
I remember a rep from MS coming into our Intro to CS class (it was a Fortran class, if that gives you an idea when this was), and instead of offering anything insightful or inspiring in regards to computing and software, he proceeded to use the talk as a platform to tell all us evil kids that piracy was to blame for high software prices. The ensuing 32-bit, 64-bit, and OOP eras have done nothing to dissuade them from this silliness, apparently.
