SegaWeb.com: Features: PS2: Disappointing Technology
SegaWeb.com: PS2: Disappointing Technology
For me, it's the availability of EA (NHL!) games that makes or breaks the system. Will NHL 2001 / NHL 2002 run on the Dreamcast? If it did, I'd probably get one of those instead.
4 MB of VRAM (PS2) is a joke! What were they thinking? Couldn't they add more, or is it directly on the EE and thus very difficult to change?
I'm glad I held out on the PS2. I might still get one eventually. What I do NOT want to do is end up having to get an XBox because it's the only decent current generation system. I hope the Nintendo Game Cube kicks ass.

Netscape 4.76 / Mac
Huh. Apparently the new Netscape 4.76 release for Mac is quite significant... a big feature is the ability to use the MRJ for Java, increasing compatibility with applets.
I wonder though, would that be at the expense of the Java/JavaScript bridge?
Netscape was the only browser that supported JavaScript scripting of Java applets on the Mac... a strategic move by Microsoft to slow down Java, I'm sure. I hope it still supports it.

Geez Slashdot sucks! They point to that cool article about the PS2, and don't even bother to mention that it was written by MARK PESCE (of VRML fame).
Amateurs. ;-)
Oh... right, I have to go back upstairs and continue to work on convincing Cheryl that getting a PS2 (tomorrow) is a gooood idea!
