It's not necessarily the upgradability for me at least. I just don't want a small cube and I really don't need an all-in-one. I just want a freakin tower as do almost every Dell and HP customer.

Nice summary, no really it's great but your entire arguement is flawed.

First thing: Yes there's all that DRM but if it wasn't there, Microsoft couldn't put in support for HD content then I bet you or your friends would complain they couldn't play it. You can't have your binary and eat it too.

Second thing: DRM is still the future. If Mac or Linux wants to play this content, it will need to be in the OS sooner or later. Since Mac is closer to Linux than Windows, I suggest you start saving up for a shiny Apple Mac Pro.

It's sized for a geriatric blind woman with a colostomy bag.

What the fuck happened?
