Why buy more expensive hardware that won't be used until after the system itself is outdated?
By the way, in terms of what "will be fine" (More what Bad Company said than you), the Dreamcast was super powerful...
Usually, the most powerful system flounders.

I agree with everything you said, but with the machine being as good as it is (hardware wise), it shouldnt be outdated technology for 4 to 5 years or even longer. Yes by then microsoft will probably have put out another system that is as good (or most likely better) then the ps3, but who knows what they themselves would even charge for that system.
It seems to me that from now on, we will be paying for these machines like you would a computer. The more money, the better the pc right? With faster hardware you run into problems like over-heating and other issues along the same lines. Yea, sony definetly shoot themselves in the foot with the machine, but it will be better someday. Whether you want to pay for it now or not, thats up to the consumer. However, I have seen plenty of the same issues with both machines.
I am probably beating a dead horse, but I am under some good pain pills because I dislocated my thumb yesterday, and probably dont (and havent) made sense.
A side note, I wish the dreamcast did better then it did. I still have mine with marvel vs capcom 2, and still go back and play it every once and a while.
