Computer's get out dated much faster than consoles...

Computers can also be upgraded much more easily than consoles. I had my 1.3 gHz CPU with 256 MB RAM upgraded cheaply to 3 gHz with 1 GB RAM. I can selectively upgrade just the things I want, and I can do far more than just run a few games (individually, since on a console you can't multitask) with the result.
Mind, there's nothing wrong with consoles. Everybody basically can enjoy whatever they like: viva la difference! But it frustrates me to hear the PR arguments that make no sense whatever being put forward without thought. PC's dated more quickly than consoles? How long did the Xbox last before Microsoft tried to sell a new version? And can you run the latest high-end crop of console titles on the consoles released a few years ago?
