Just exaclty how "dedicated" to playing games on a PC do I have to be before I'm "not in the market for a console"? Could you explain to me in what manner my dedication is lacking so I can get to work on fixing that?

Or perhaps a more accurate way of putting it is this: when you say "they" and "them", in fact, you mean something else entirely. You really mean: "me, and people who think like me".
Three words, buddy: pot, kettle, black. Given your own grandiose assertions about what everyone in the gaming industry does or doesn't think, you ought to spare me your accusations of hubris. Reality check: if you're gaming on every console and six different PC's, you're pretty much an aberration, not part of a demographic. So, unless you wish to contend that your Batcavesque setup is representative of the norm, what good does presenting it really do in terms of contradicting anything I've said?

Kindly accept that most people do have preferences of some kind. Maybe there are some guys who own an Xbox 360 but would rather wait for GoW2 to be ported to PC, but they're a negligible bunch. And they're windmill-tilters to boot, because no PC port for GoW2 is forthcoming--it's exclusive even by your standards. But if there was a port in coming in six more months, the 360 owners are by and large not going to wait, and that's borne out by how badly the PC port of GoW1 sold.

And there you go, right at the heart of the matter: you're dug into your position and aren't going to budge an inch. What've we got left to discuss in this little threadjack? The size of the chips on people's shoulders?
