This is gonna sound mean, but because they dont know better. The failure rate of launch units it pretty high and the exclusive games that are worth having are rare. There is always a software drought aswell.
Most will regret the decision down the line when their unit fails. But its their risk to take.

The best/most logical time to buy a new system is one to two years after launch once the software is there and the price has eventually been slashed.

This.

Ask (insert a number of people here who bought the 360 or PS3 at launch) if they still have their launch unit. I gaurentee about 50% will say no. Does nobody remember the RROD and the YLOD?

Everything else in the bolded I agree with as well but I can't add to it lol.
