Apple has been slowly recovering much of it's market, as well as expanding in areas it previously had no experience in, and dominating them on top of that.
The 360 has a lot of potential, that is still untapped. My only complaint is that the damn thing gets too hot. The PS3 has tried to fool E3-goers more than once, by showing a pre-rendered movie, trying to pass it off as actual gameplay footage. The Wii is promising gameplay as it's main attraction, not image quality or raw processing power. This will come down to the input device (controller), and how the games are developed themselves. The internal hardware will play a small part when compared to the 360 and PS3.
I'm really interested to see how the Wii finally turns out.
Chernobyl was a disaster because the Russian government built it, with little regard to human safety. So in order to cut costs, they decided not to build contamination tanks, therefore when the reactor had a meltdown, it leaked into the atsmophere.
Three Mile Island never had a leak. This is because it was built by America, and they built contamination tanks. There was a meltdown within the plant itself, but it never breached walls, it simply went into the contamination tanks. Therefore making the "nuclear power is a disaster waiting to happen" propaganda totally blown out of proportion. No nuclear plant that had built-in contamination tanks has ever had a disaster like Chernobyl did. Ever.
As far as radioactive storage, I agree with the concerns over that, as there are no ways of safely destroying it, and storing it always adds risk. However, the current push for nuclear fusion will eliminate that worry, along with the concern of radioactivity altogether.
Oh of course not. It's never the parents fault for neglecting their kid, then acting dumbfounded when they submerse themselves in an alternate reality to get away from the crappy life you've given them.
Ok, to be fair, there's actually 2 possible reasons why the kid did what he did.
1: You're bad parents
2: Your kid (was) a moron.
Christ almighty, I'm getting sick of these lawsuits.
The Xbox 1080 will feature a robust GPU capable of pumping out 6 petabyes per second, and will require roughly three and half fusion reactors to power it.
Why is it every time there's a ruling like this for America, Canadians go nuts and make fun of us for having a fascist government?
Where are all the America bashers now?
And it doesn't put out some wussy windmill sized power, we're talking 2000 Megawatts -- that's nuclear plant territory, if I understand correctly.
Indeed it seems so, at least according to this page.

LED lights cost next to nothing to leave on. Make the switch now!

I wonder how long it will take before some kid sticks one to his forehead to try to see if he's "ripe" or not. :P
But what if you're both a hitman and a videogamer? Oh my! PANDORA'S BOX!!!

Some good reading here.

And if the ofender lives outside the U.S.?
Oh, that's right, the law only punishes it's own citizens. Not everyone else in the world that does it.
Everyone keeps forgetting about nuclear fusion, for some reason.
Can someone please throw a bomb through this guy's window? We don't need people like him wasting precious air and living space on this planet.

I can't believe how much Sony dropped the ball on this one.

Don't assume that one extreme is better then the other.
How dare you remind me of the funniest skit known to mankind! Now I have an urge to pop in my Flying Circus DVDs.

I would think that Venus would a more viable planet to use Geothermal power on, if any.
Uh, no. It was a hacked down version of the GeForce 3 64MB. At the time, they had 128MB boards on the market.
Hey now, those lightsabers looked TOTALLY like the real thing. EVEN THE SOUNDS WERE REALISTIC! *zwwaaang* *CLASH* *vooom*
Nope, I'm buying my next console from the other servant of the devil. Mircosoft!

That's one big ass ape. Sheesh.
