Sigh.... why i ignored the display is cause that is the one thing that applies to everyone. I am not also factoring in the cost of a display for a PC. Hell, I am even assuming that you can just as easily plug a PC into a standard HDTV if you don't want to spend more on a dedicated display and if your primary reason for getting the PC is to play games.
How is this biased? Can you play a PC without getting some form of display? neither can you play a console. I have eliminated the one thing that both of them absolutely needs. But somehow I am being biased?
Tha aside, I don't think you realize that you are making teh exact point I was making too. But keep talking about achieving your goals and your finances... can't even start to imagine where that came from.

It's disingenuous to ignore certain necessary factors to the expense of getting into HD gaming. A 1080p monitor, is quite a bit cheaper than a 1080p TV, even moreso if you adjust for distance from TV/Monitor.

I think it's perfectly fair to leave out the display. This might not have been the case 5-7 years ago, but all video cards come with HDMI ports these days. So you can easily plug your PC into your computer monitor, or your TV. And there is a likely chance that you can get a computer monitor with an HDMI port that will let you hook up your console to it. Not everyone will necessarily do this, but the options are there. Display should be irrelevant to this argument, given how these devices connect with each other today.
