wow, in just 3 short months, PS2 has already managed to work it\'s way up the top... just imagine... if they did send 1,000,000 at launch, how much better off would they be right now?  Would they even have to relaunch the system?  BTW, are they still sending shipments to the US?  I haven\'t heard about any games getting released soon, are there any?

Ummm, Sony\'s own offical numbers for Playstation unit sales are only around 70 million. The first two consoles (PSX & N64) seem to be the total number of software & hardware. The bottom two (DC & PS2) seem to reflect only hardware. Am I mistaken here? The DC has sold well over 12 million hardware and software products so far, and the PS2\'s total should be much higher if you include software (or lower excluding software).

BTW: Where\'s the Saturn? It was still a very viable platform back in 95 - 96.. Shouldn\'t it diserve the #3 or #4 spot?

Well, my god damn newspaper didn\'t include that, why don\'t you just call them up, jackass.  But you are correct taht the first two reflect total number of software and hardware, and the bottom two reflect just the hardware.  But you have already god damn pissed me the **** off.
