What about stuff like Virus ?
Conveniently forgot to mention it eh ?
Or the fact that yeah PC have mods and steam but how many PC users actually use those ?
Heck, why the F*** would I use Steam to launch wow, none of the people I played wow with for 3 years ever did...
PSN and Xboxlive come out of the box...

lol

Do you work for Apple or something?

I never owned a Mac.

I'm a software developer, I work on PCs 45 hours a week..

I think I have pretty good PC knowledge...

PC are great but you can't compare them to console in term of plug and play. 

I hit Best Buy on friday, get a PS3 game, go back home, put the game in the PS3, sit on my couch and can play, no worry ever about whether the game will work or not....

Now we are getting somewhere about what this thread was supposed to be. The point is that the HD consoles can't compare with the Wii when it comes to plug and play either. You go home with your new game and BAM, install. then BAM, required update. You get the point. Then your console freezes because of firmware updates....

 

Dude that happens to like 1% of console users, this isn't something most console owner encounter the way you constantly have to get patches and drivers on the PC... And you have nothing to do for the update on the console, it does all the work for you....

 

Besides Wii has system updates, just no game patches ( which means if a bugs gets through testing you are screwed..
