    So in my opnion Apple is not far away from making a gamming meachine to join other bigger compinies such a Microsoft and Sony. Obviosly it will be ridicoulsy over priced and sence the wii is strugling to compete with PS3 and the Xbox. Than makes a place for a new consol so what this thread is about is what you would like to see if you were to get it. So go wild extra points for anyone whom make a possable picture of it lol.

    Okay. First issue, by being able to play "all games" I assume that you mean 360 PS3 games etc. That would result in a massive lawsuit against Apple. Issue No.2, Apple isn't really known for putting cutting edge tech in their computers, so I'll assume that it would be the same for consoles

    That is, until you try and run something more CPU intensive, and your Dual core gets loaded up.

    iPad cost $800. The price would be around 600-900 knowing Apple. Plus nobody would develop for them.

    They'll probably build a game system, and not make one game.

    They'll expect other developers to make the games and support their system, but then take 50% of the earnings from them. Imagine the App Store on a full screen TV.

    that would be pretty badass. :) Knowing Apple they would probably bring out something pointless like an iTunes for their game console. >.<

    Apple will NEVER will put good graphic hardware in any of their products.

    I spent $1700 on an iMac and they gave me a 256mb graphics card.

    What businessman uses a mac?
    If you were a graphic designer( a target demographic of the mac) then you would want a good graphics card with alot of memory.
