For one Sony is NOT M$ please refrain from using dollar signs for "S"

Second, I'm sure Sony is showing its specs because like 10 people think X-box is all around better (Games, graphics, sound) which is very few and far between. Especially since PS2 supports DTS but game manufacturers don't want to spend the money to record sounds in DTS...It's sad really.

So they're showing these rats that are swimming from a quite boyant ship that even though chicken little is saying the boat is sinking it actually isn't.

Well I do know that MS is joining up with ATI b/c they lost Nvidia. Why did they lose Nvidia... b/c MS wanted to much money.

So yes, I agree with GAAZ, don't use the $ for Sony when in fact MS is the biggest money hungry company around.

Also, I have heard that the Xbox 2 will have a 3.5 GHz processor.

For the reccord, the Cell records at about 4.6 GHz. Neither Intel nor AMD has produced a processor that even hits 4GHz.

The Next Xbox is slated for the end of next year. They are trying to be first on the market.

To bad in the past two generations the first on the market was always in last place.

Saturn, Dreamcast, sounding familiar. I don't think this will be much different.

All i've heard about "Revolution" is just that. The codename

.
Nintendo has always been about secrets. I don't expect to find out the specs until a few months before it comes out. I believe it's coming out 2006.
