604258 2007-10-24 05:10:00 plod, thank you for correcting me, and winmacguy, true, the PS3 is losing the console war, even though (well, I think) it is the better machine, just like how Macs are better, even though PC's are more popular. See what I mean? MS got in first, and the better side (either Apple or Sony) are losing as a result.

Get your head out of whatever cave its in AND WAKE UP! Apple doesn't make consoles and who the hell would even by it? It would be pretty and absolutely non-functional. I can just imagine playing a FPS on such a system. You could only shoot someone in the stomach, if you tried a headshot, you would be booted out for showing independence and initiative.

Actually beeswax there is nothing to stop Apple from making a gaming console since they are a hardware maker that happens to make an OS.

Steve Wozniak actually wrote the first games for Apple as well as building the original Apple I

Having said that, gaming or developing gaming consoles doesn't seem to be an area that Steve Jobs has ever looked at getting into. Judging by reports he seems more interested in the iPhone and possibly a re designed Newton PDA...

604265 2007-10-24 05:46:00 That would be the one. It was probably too far ahead of its time though as it never took off and then as the article says, Sony and Nintendo were in the game. (Jobs wasn't with Apple at this stage)
I have a feeling that if Apple were to do it again the results would be considerably different although it doesn't appear to be an area that Apple is going for.

It was actually beeswax's comment that instigated the discussion.
