Why would you want to write off 10-20% of your potential market (and piss off 50%) before you even start competing with Sony?

That seems to be Sony's marketing strategy, and it seems to work for them. Frankly, I expect that both of these new consoles will root everything on your home network.

It helps to plug them into a sound producing source playing the aforementioned Pink Floyd and Phish, or something to your taste. Alternatively, regular speakers playing Wayne Newton or Lawrence Welk will empty your room and leave you in peace (once you build up immunity.) Also joining in the aforementioned bong hits will help also. It IS college.
