Microsoft's (lack of) committment to PC gaming

[Sonarman]

Yes, In some way what we really need is just a console with a keyboard, that would bring back a level playing field as we had in the days of the Amiga, where games were almost guaranteed to work. But the last thing console manufacturers seem to want to do is add a keyboard for gameplay or allow the development of complex software like sims on their "oh so cool" platforms .
