I wasn't saying people wouldn't continue to buy PC's. I think what will happen however, is people upgrading or replacing their current PC's, A LOT less often. Personally, I have NEVER upgraded a PC unless it fell behind the games i was trying to run. I have never heard of anyone else, not family, nor friends of family, nor cowokers who have ever upgraded or replaced a PC for any other reason.
And yeah, i suppose someone will be making some PC games, but i strongly suspect it will be very crappy software not worth buying. Existing in a similar vain as the "token minority" on a sitcom. A stroll into any major electronic retail outlet (like the best buy down the street from my apartment), the writing is on the wall. 5 to 7 years ago, the PC game sections for that retailer, at any store, covered both sides of two isles. Today the PC game section is ONE side, of ONE isle, of any store. The console section, each major system has two isles devoted to it. The selection for PC games is crap, and it gets crappier every year.
ON the plus side, i save money i suppose.
