Gawd, not again...
Reuse your OS license, along with your mouse, keyboard/ controller. XP and Vista come with a built-in firewall and Avira/ AVG are free. Buying ten games at $20-25 less than the console versions will easily save the difference between $400 and $199, plus I've yet to see a console that can run Office, Photoshop, Visual Studio etc etc
For many people, me included, who need a PC for work and can just spend $150 on a decent graphics card to make it into a gaming PC, console gaming is simply too expensive, too rigid and too limiting. Your mileage may vary, but please stop these ridiculously ignorant posts.
