And PC-gungames are rare and not alwais comatible. And finaly, most gamers have bigger TV-screens than PC-screens. I can't even imagine myself sitting behind my computer screen at 1 meter distance. There is not much space in my computer corner, like in most computer rooms / corners. > Anyway, this is my last word on this thread as I do hate these threads > which pointlessly compare two different types of machine.

I'm glad others do the same, sometimes my view changes after hearing somebody else's opinion. I think these types of discussions lead to inovation. But that is my opinion. Cheers, DEnnis..
