None, both seem to be based on increasingly PC-esque (apart from the admittedly rather funky multi-core PPC processors) platforms, PS3 HD version will even be running Linux!
Therefore I'll just stick with PCs

Same as Steev, probably none also. I also will stick with my PC
If I do end up getting a console (which I doubt) I will probably end up getting Nintendos new one, which will surely be inexpensive.

Actually, there IS one console I'd consider, I'm sorely tempted by the PSP since they ported a MAME emulator...

If the games that come out are good then I'll buy a new console, I'm not buying one just for the sake of having something new.

Probably go for the PS3, but my PS2 is great as it is - plenty of great games and plays DVD anyway. I use my PC for everything else. |

that all depends on what you're measuring, and is basically a pointless figure.
Wait and see what the games are like, that's the only way to make a fair comparison.
I'll probably be waiting to see, although the xbox comes out 6 months earlier!

I've seen a couple of photos in the Metro paper and they look awesome, almost real life for the PS3.
As long as you can put a new HD into it and it does everything I want it to do... then I'll be getting it the first day it comes out!!

I'm still happy with my PS2 and GTA Vice City.
Of course, by Christmas 2008, I will have finally have beaten GTA San Andreas, and the PS3 price will have dropped to £100.
I'll buy one then.

I must admit the thing of being able to DL old games on the Revolution does interest me somewhat.. Just a shame it's only Nintendo inhouse games afaik, I'd want to DL WWE No Mercy and the THQ WCW games from N64.
No Mercy was class! Best wrestling game ever! |

Regarding specs (and without wishing to upset angelus yet again), please bear in mind that Sony told fibs about the original Playstation, AND the PS2.
A lot of what the PS3 has "twice of" is utterly pointless.

Aside from the ones in my PS1 and PS2 which still work fine (and both are first edition consoles)
I must be special for them to treat me to the only working lasers.
