All good points, Elgi. Most don't apply to me personally at the moment, though. I don't have an office and a living room - still a student in a tiny apartment. The PC is in the living room, same as the TV. My monitor is actually bigger than my TV, and the PC's hooked up to the stereo because it serves as my jukebox. I probably painted consoles as less versatile than they really are, but they just don't offer me anything ATM.
