You mean a general purpose-device like a computer?  Well those haven't been doing well at all...


Um, okay. If you can't see the difference between a computer and a specialized consumer electronic device, I'm not even going to argue with you.

It's a four letter word that starts with a "w", ends with a "k", and has an "o" and "r" in the middle.

 

Yes, but my point is that the multifunctionality of a computer is what has made it so popular.


Except computers have 1000x the functions of a PS3 and the price of a computer can range from a few hundred to several thousand dollars depending on what you want. However, even beginning to compare a computer to a PS3 makes you a moron. Having multiple degrees in computer networking, technology and having worked in the computer field for 10 years I can tell you that computer growth is mostly due to business use and NOT home use. The majority of computers are used for business purposes, NOT entertainment. Entertainment is a secondary use for computers, it is the PRIMARY use for a PS3.
