I do recall that name and it could have been the same movie, but "Pirates" concentrated mostly on Jobs and Gates. I wouldn't say Gates was evil OR a genius. He was in the right place at the right time and he's very crafty. He had the people who knew what to do with windows, whereas Jobs didn't. But I think the REAL losers in all this was IBM. They basically handed over a multi-billion dollar making opportunity because they were convinced people wouldn't want a PC in their home. Jobs knew it. Gates knew it too. They were visionaries. It reminds me of when television was first invented, (not that I was THERE or anything....lol). Oh yeah guys, it'll never catch on.

I'm not going to lie when I say I have been a die hard Sega fan all my life, I have every Sega system ever developed.

Long live the Dreamcast, the most underrated system in the history of videogaming. For those that experenced it while it ran, it was one of the greatest moments.

As far as newer systems go, I like the ps2 for its RPG's...obviously, X-box I mainly just like the racing and FPS's. Each system has its strong points. I don't have enough experience with a GC however to give an opinion.
