In Australia we have a minister for every little thing.
It's ridiculous.

Ministry of communications, infact.

Incidentally, Conroy is the minister for communications. 'Censorship minister' is an all too accurate joke.

Well there was controversy over one of Bill Henson's photo exhibits which included artistic photos of a naked 13 y/o girl not long ago. Someone complained and the police acted prematurely, seising the works. But legally there wasn't a leg to stand on.

It's the emergency services that will have to peel you off the ground.

PS3 Predicted to Lead Market Through 2011 314

Posted by Zonk on Thursday August 17, 2006 @02:57PM from the you-missed-the-analysts-right dept.

eldavojohn writes "The Yankee Group (a Boston Technology firm) recently announced that it predicts Sony's PS3 to lead the market with a 44% share through 2011. Most interesting is their prediction that the Wii will maintain only 16% of the market share. From the article: 'The analyst group believes Sony will lead in next-gen market share by 44% in 2011, with Xbox 360 taking a close 40% share, followed by Wii with a wee little bitty 16% share.'"
