Let's see: wait for an unshipped Microsoft product, or enjoy flaming
plasma fireballs now?
Buy the Playstation 2 now - it's here, and gamers aren't as a rule into
the whole "delayed gratification" thing. If the X-Box is that much
massively cooler, that's a year from now. Buy them both - together they're
still cheaper than a pony.
