Sandra Lee's awfully stupid list of reasons not to buy a PSP

I'm assuming that Associated Content is a website that wants to sound like a reputable news source, considering how similar it may appear to the Associated Press. However, a recent article by Sandra Lee called "Ten Reasons Why You Should Not Buy a PSP" shows that this site is as credible as The National Enquirer. Yuck. Here are some of her absolutely stupid reasons not to buy a PSP:

• "The screen is tiny relative to the detail of the games you're playing." What was she doing? Playing with a Game Boy Micro? The PSP's screen is the largest of a handheld that I can remember.

• "The screen gets marked up very easily and is prone to scratching." Once again, what the hell is she doing with the system? Throwing it into the laundry?

• "None of your current PlayStation games will work." NO DUH. Sony never promised you could just throw DVDs in there. How huge would the system be if you could play your current PS2 games? If this happened, Sandra Lee would probably write an article complaining the system is too big.

• "The unit is too small and there are too many buttons spaced closely together for an adult to play without getting aggravated... at least buy the PSP accessory kit that includes a magnifying glass (to enlarge that small screen)"

Reasons number 1, 3, 4, 6 and 7 involve Memory Sticks being too expensive. While that's a fairly reasonable complaint, it makes a list of ten reasons to not buy the PSP seem even less convincing. I know the PSP isn't perfect, but these are complaints that go beyond the realm of stupid. It's clear that this woman doesn't want portability in her life. She might as well lug around a giant plasma TV, a PStwo and a power generator. Or get a Virtual Boy.

This article has angered me so much that I'm starting the official PSP Fanboy Hates Sandra Lee campaign. As part of this campaign, I'm encouraging you to write a letter to Sandra Lee, noting some of the errors of judgement you may have found in her article. Please, try to sound a bit educated when you write, so that she doesn't write another story entitled "PSP fanboys don't know how to write," because that would suck.
