   Let me also add that regardless of hardware specs I believe it comes down to games ad online capabilities in which MS is about 2-3 years further in development than Sony. But that said Sony has the option to constantly update this with firmware updates.
   
   All in all I believe Sony & MS will split here, Wii will dominate in Japan and PS3 will win in Europe.

   "I have no knowledge of who made what chips, but I find it unlikely that this "man" developed them both. For all we know it could be the guy who swept the floor in both offices where they were developed."
   
   Its my father in law and he is the lead electrical engineer at IBM in Poughkeepsi NY, look it up and so be so quick to judge.
   
   I am not biased and I stand by that, but I have to lean on the PS3 side for the shear fact that I dont believe the Xbox can provide what gamers expect for this next console cycle. Its was rushed to get to the market first with the compromise in technology. Msoft said grabbing early market share was worth more than putting more into the hardware, and as of right now it looks as though it has payed off well in the short term. But no1 here can tell me that the graphics on the 360 will be anywhere near tolerable in about 2-3 years neverless the full 5-6 year console cycyle. Look at the big picture- PC's are on quad SLI's currently and right now they are in development o the GPU on the same DIE and the CPU, yes this is a couple years out but... All Im saying is that with the rate of technology change why would you release a poduct that is already outdated at time of release?

   I personally like Sirius better for Music but I find myself listening to nothing but Sirius' NFL channel 124, probobly cause Im a football junky! Ive been watching this stock for a couple months now and I think this is goign to skyrocket soon, but the only worry I have is that HD radio is starting to pickup.... competition is never good!

   Whats the point of purchasing a TV show?? Thats a rip off IMO, if you have a DVR u can record HD content for free (besides the cost of owning 1).
   I think the movie download is a great idea and sony should try to achieve the same feature in their online service.
   
   I am still unbiased and would not buy either console at this time due to the fact that a family member is a lead engineer that work on both processors and said that both chips were extremely rushed for launch and both need several revisions to get the chips to 100% efficiency. But with that said I will be buying a PS3 as I was told from the man who developed both chips that the PS3 architecture if leaps and bounds ahead of the xbox. Not only that but in playing the 360 I am very uimpressed, actually its quite pathetic! My PC has HAD better graphics for over 2 years than this junk box. Granted as the devs will be expanding on the 2nd gen games the system is currently outdated and is not worth purchasing something that cannot give me 5 years worth of "impressive" graphics and gameplay. Gears of war is impressive utilizing bloom lighting effesct, but I have seen this effect for over 2 years on PC games, sorry but just doesnt impress me.
