Gah, this argument again.

Think about it. Next time your desktop or laptop needs replacing, don't settle for a laptop.

Fear not. You may build a $500-600 desktop for redditing, browsing the internet and so on.

Then, whoopsies, add a video card for the price of a console, and BAM, you have a gaming computer that shits on consoles. Essentially, a console and a computer together.
