i would be a little bit sceptical about this information cos they've be "leaked".... or made up if you're a little more cynical like me

Revolution gpu power is between ps3 and xbox360, but i think it has the lowest cpu power, just single dual-threaded IBM PowerPC 2.5 GHz

Doesn't really mean anything though. Remeber the SuperNES CPU was half the speed of the Genesis but the SuperNES was the more capable machine.

I personal dont like playing games on computers for long periods of time, I am going to get a xbox 360 and a ps3 and sit in front of my samsung 70" dlp with them hooked up through my onkyo 7.1 with polk audio speakers and 2 velodyne 15" subwoofers! I dont care what anyone says playing games on a computer just cant compare with that experience, it's awesome with a ps2 cant wait for ps3...JMO!

Hook taht TV up to yor PC(S-vido output, which i would hope your video card has) and same with speakers, then get a wireless mouse and keybored and play your PC games on that TV on the couch.

i can't beleive that, who voted for nintendo revolution??
i didn't know that someone will like it

You're kiding right? I dont wanna get into an argument with anyone over this but as far as i'm concerned, nintendo has a very appealing system to a very large group of people. Free-Style remote, virtual console, and more to come. Strong 3rd party support is currently being pledged to the platform, thus negating the argument that nintendo is gonna have crappy games. Agreed, gamecubes third-party library overall was a disappointment due to its limit number of titles. But developers seem pleased with nintendos offering, and so far i see no reason to put-down any of the systems.

For a large group of people, including myself, its not just that though...

many people simply prefer to use a controller to play games, instead of a keyboard mouse combination regardless of the limitations for controls. And unfortunately not all games right now are support joypads, on a console this is gauranteed.
