If I were Apple I would do just what Rearden did in the end. Pack up my crap and leave. Have fun making a product as good as the iPod. See-ya. Duece.
At the very least pull out of France. You want to try to control my product, well too bad you don't get it any longer. Thanks for playing.
I don't understand why compainies are being forced to share their 'technical data' or their products. This is not Capitalism. Oh, Microsoft makes more money than everyone else so we'd better go ahead and take their product and give it to everyone else so they can make money too.
Ayn Rand is probably laughing all this up. "I told ya so."
Let's not get carried away with arguing about these systems. You can compare performance all you want but in this case that shouldn't be the reason you buy one of these systems. They are all aimed at different audiences.
Nintendo puts out a new system not much more powerful than the last but has the most innovative controller. (Remember kids don't point it at your eye)
Sony. They know consoles. They've proven it, to me at least. Their new system is supposed to dominate. I just hope it is more like the first xbox in regards to being so easy to mod.
Microsoft. Of course the xbox 360 will be good. This company has literally tons of money lying around just ready to be thrown at a new project. Although, like all things from Microsoft we have to wait for them to patch all the bugs.
Personally, I will stick with Sony then grab a new xbox when the price drops. As far as Nintendo is concerned. I lived without a gamecube so i can do without anything else the put out. Especially if Resident Evil is going to be multi platform from now on.

Just because all of their games are designed for 4 year olds doesn't make them not evil.
