Yea, but they're 11, so they dont quite think like a smart consumer. they want the big 1000 dollar computer (that isnt that good in the first place) at best buy to play starcraft II so he can complain and use dirty tactics to gloat over the internet. There certainly are much less annoying little kids in most PC gaming. Because PC gaming is more expensive initially. And because the average parent is, for the most part, clueless on how computers work and what to look for, they tend to have to buy prebuilt expensive computers, which most dont want to do.

So the kid ends up buying a console, which is cheaper. Good. I frankly dont want them screaming in my ear.
