Microsoft has quietly circulated the specifications for its next-generation Xbox video-game console, indicating how the company plans to carry on its war against dominant player Sony.
Microsoft launched its Xbox console 20 months after the PlayStation 2 debut. By the time Microsoft sold 1.5 million consoles, Sony had sold more than 20 million PlayStations. To date, Microsoft has sold 13.7 million Xboxes, while Sony has sold more than 70 million. In the United States alone, console sales amounted to $3 billion in sales last year.

I can’t even afford a decent PC, so gaming is out of question for me. =(
If I had to pick though, I’d go for Nintendo, for old time’s sake. =P
I still have my good ol’ SNES, but it’s b0rked… =(
