if there was like a dedicated gaming PC, a PC with no fancy pants operating system...

so it will not have the load of a heavy operating system just like consoles but it will still have hardware upgradebility, and also you will still be able to update it with patches/drivers...

how to update with patches and mods?: connect another PC through a network cable, download the drivers/patches/mods there and load them into your dedicated gaming box Smile

isnt that a good idea? Razz

hehe ... maybe you could mod this gaming pc to install linux or even windows on the other hand on a platform like this you could install very nasty DRM software.

install win 2k... stripped down to the barest of bones needed for a os... with minimal services running, just like the people do who are on top of the futuremark benchmark board all the time.

Buy a PS3 / Xbox360 if you want this sort of idea George W Bush - '...more and more of our imports are coming from overseas.'
