Why is the Xbox 360 in this poll? It's not a PC like the original Xbox (which wasn't a PC either, just x86-based). You also forgot the Commodore 64, although its status was reversed (originally intended to be a game console).

I am happy that I actually got to vote for the Pippin in a poll for the first time.

I thought this day would never come!

I picked Xbox/360 because I've only owned them and an Amiga 32 from the list and I never got any use out of the Amiga.

I'm still not sure what the definition of 'computer > game console conversion' is supposed to mean, but if I understand it correctly, then if the Xboxes are on there, shouldn't the Dreamcast also be?

I'm so happy about this poll, you don't even know. I thought for sure I would be the only one voting for the Pippin. I'm even more elated to see that there are two other people as ecstatic about it as I am.  :clap:
