Try making better games & hardware I have been playing video games since pong in the 1970's and historically most games are lousy with a pretty picture on the box.
Spending hundreds on video cards for computers and thousands for complete systems is equally asinine.
I have the current generation of consoles & to tell the truth after my XBOX 360 red ringed and died and was warranty replaced by an older unit with the fans cranked up to full speed weather there was a game playing or not I have become disgusted with the whole scene.
Ah yes lets call India and get jerked around by some thick accented sorry excuse for tech support I just love that. Thanks Microshaft!
Lets pay close to $60.00 per title for last generations graphics & programming on this generations consoles. Oh and lets be original and redo the FPS to death. Where are the engaging story lines and where is the fun?
So far my Sony PS3 works good even so I am awaiting another disappointing system burn out.
Overall I have to say the hardware is too expensive and so are the games for the quality we are receiving.
Uh yeah Here you go please take close to $1,000.00 of my hard earned money, just so I can have an aggravating painful experience, you know the opposite of the kind experience I was trying to achieve by buying the console and cables and games and etc.... Puhlease spare me.
Looks like the people are voting with their wallets and that is a good thing!
So in closing my message is this; straighten up or go out of business people will find an alternative to overpriced crap! Entertainment is what it is all about.

I agree I have seen the new models with the Black Bezel wrapping. Uh Yuck! I loved the video Apple put out showing how they are cutting cost with the new unibody construction, The video reminded me of the old T.V. Show Hot Dog for those of you old enough to remember it and those who are not it was a program that showed how things are built.
Anyway after seeing the new screens I kept an eye on MACMALL for about a month waiting for the 17" MBP's to make the model switch, once they did the prices started dropping on the previous model. I bought a 17" MBP so yes I put my money up for my point of view and I am happy I did.
