What for a system that is from a new company to the gaming market, and hasen\'t got a console that has a well know name worldwide!!

Do you know that 1 in 5 people own a PS1 in Australia? That equals about 4 million consoles sold in Australia alone since its launch, and remember, Australia only has a population of around 22 million.

Xbox is as well known worldwide, and indeed Australia as the PS2 is..

and apart from that, there are well more than 100,000 educated gamers in Australia that if they saw fit to get an XBox, could get one..  you make it sound like the only people that bought the console were those that have heard of it..

But it\'s not a name brand.  They know and trust Sony, give MS some time.
