Crap you could sell for $200, even. An apple branded version of 360-like hardware would be, what? $300? Still significantly less than a PS3? Yeah. Yeah it would be. If Apple were to make a console they'd come in competitive. The Pippin, for the one person that remembers it existed, was made when Jobs was not a part of the company. Under his lead such a tragedy wouldn't have existed at all. But with him, should they choose to go gaming (think Apple TV, people, lest you be so ignorant as to not understand how Apple works), it will be the cool thing. That means no one will care that they pay $100 more than the system is worth. Only you "core" gamers will, and the Wii has already proven that you don't count for much. Good luck. |
A lot of people remember the Pippin. Anyways, I never really even heard of Apple TV (don't like Apple at all so I don't keep up with them). I checked out the site for it and it looks like a complete rip-off. Why not just get a DVR to watch shows instead of paying 2.99 for each episode or perhaps cheaper for entire season?? DVR seems like it owns Apple TV.
I hope Apple enters the home console market again being all cocky and they waste tons of money (their system fails on the scale of Pippin). That would bring them back down to earth since they think they are so bad ass at making electronics when most of their products really aren't shit. I also agree with The Source about the article stating the market is dominated by Sony and Microsoft. What kind of bullshit is this? Hmm... Lets just forget about Nintendo...
