Bill Gates said he'd give 90% of his wealth to charity. Thats obiously gonna bit a bit of a white lie coz how wuld he make his new consoles and computers n stuf?
just to point one thing out, Bill gates does not pay for the Xbox or Windows. thats Microsoft. his personal welth and the of Microsoft are not one and the same

HDTV, I don't see why only geeks would own a HDTV... it's so much better then normal TV. If it was more affordable, everyone would have it.
Woof, I'm a clown! |

I think what everyone is saying is that the xBox360 set-up the next gen of gaming, its expected to have a life of 5 years, the games are new so you should be comering them to xbox games in there first year, as developers havent yet utilised the power of he xbox360.

Thats a bloody gud point, but hang on a sec, to be an owner of a company, you have to own at least 50%. It doesnt take a genius to work out that 90% is still too much

tbh thats just silly, of course it will come down in price so that one day everyone will afford it, look at colour tv or dvd players or any piece of tech.
Things ALLWAYS come down in price for the mainstreem to adopt them.

It's becoming more and more affordable every day, you can now brand new 32" HD TFT for under 600 quid if you shop around. Indeed I think Aria have some now.
You can get 26/27 inch once for 450 ish too.
I used to have a handle on life, but it broke.

of course the prices will change, they allready have done ALOT.
If the prices only changed when everyone already had it then why would the companies need to lower the price if everyone already had one.
May i ask how old you are ?
