PC Console?

I'm sure that, like the other systems, you can go to a bootup screen to work with the harddrive and other system settings.

PIAC: Own system, eh? Remember, games use the API in a more complex way than other software, so emulation can cause quite some issues. And remember that Microsoft might have patented parts of their software. BTW, most EA games need IE6, I doubt you can fake that easily.

PIAC:

that was mostly my lack of knowledge speaking
they could partner with nintendo for this, and package it in the NES console shell, and then huzzah!

this PConsole does have potential, im guessing alot of people out there not really interested in console gaming, yet wanting to play counter strike/quake3 etc like their cool friend down the street does, yet not having the monies to purchase a PC could look at this for a more afordable option

Dude, come on, this is coming from Kentia Hall...whoever made this probably has a poor grasp on the English language and some sort of criminal record

A more in-depth article in the technology is at http://www.gamingworldx.com/features/One-on-OnewithDISCover.shtml.

What i want to know is how they plan on deterring users upgrading their own devices. Why buy the $500 box when you can just get the $300 model and upgrade it? Same with the TiVO-style unit -- a lot of TiVO users upgrade their hard drives to get longer recording times. Sony hasn't taken action against it because users still have to subscribe to the TiVO service. And similarly, Xbox users who mod their systems lose the ability to play on Live.

That's a really bad stereotype.
