Okay if you like plastic. And lots and lots of it.

I'm past the phase were I need my hardware to look tough.

I hear good things about Dog House Systems out of Texas and a bunch of other new guys getting started. CyberPower and IbuyPower are all very cheap for what you get but that is why support is so bad. Plus they have to cut corner everywhere they can.

It's not just the power, either; It's organization and across-the-board standards. Most Games For Windows now tell you what WEI you need, and what WEI you have, when you look at them in the "Games" folder. And games are all starting to standardize controls, even supporting the Xbox 360 controller natively, which puts PCs on par with consoles in some ways they formerly lacked, and makes them better in others in which they've always excelled.

I'm betting eventually we'll come full-circle, and a major console will ship with a wireless keyboard, mouse, and control pad, and be equally at home playing games and doing "normal" computer stuff like web surfing, office productivity tools, and performing media functions. They'll shun disc-based games in favor of downloads and local storage.

We're almost there now. If PS3 and Xbox 360 were more supportive of keyboard/mouse, and didn't rely so heavily on the disc-based games, we'd essentially be able to count both consoles and their online game stores as the evolution of Steam.

Frankly, I'm surprised there ISN'T a Steam-based gaming console yet. Plug it in, turn it on, give them your credit card number, and download the games you want on the spot.

Yeah... The gaming PC is due for a comeback, but it will be slightly different from the homemade projects the old-school gaming geeks so cherished. It will be shinier, cheaper, and easier for the average end-user to manage. Graphics cards will be slide-in, easy-to-upgrade accessories instead of "open the case and install drivers" tech challenges.

When console and gaming PC meld into one thing that takes the best from both worlds, it will be the pinnacle of gaming, and old-style consoles will be abandoned as gaming solutions. People will maintain a gaming pc for games and media in the living room, and a netbook for mundane stuff. ]]>Sep 9th 2009 12:08AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/08/cyberpower-announces-new-range-of-overclocked-core-i5-i7-based/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/08/cyberpower-announces-new-range-of-overclocked-core-i5-i7-based/
