The whole point of this thread is that 360/PS3 are trying so hard to be PC's, that they end up overlapping PC gaming - and for anyone who knows their way around PC's, the consoles come up short. I mean, they just found online gaming! They're still amazed by user created content! For non-PC owners I can see why it's incredible, but for the rest of us, been there done that (in higher res and more detail). Wii embraces the qualities of a console, takes gaming in a different direction from PC's, and that makes it the only console worthy of a purchase for a PC gamer.

Well said. May I add game installations to the mix? Many PS3 games require installation, just like PC games do. Oh, and Sony allows you to install Linux on it. On the other hand, I can see why a PC owner would buy a PS3 or a 360. If you have a PC just for games, a console is a cheaper alternative (well, without the games). And there's quite a few console exclusives that are good enough to justify a console's purchase (at least for some people).
