It was actually in the WSJ earlier this week or late last week. N64 has 8+ million sold (total) and PSX around 9 mil. Since PSX has been on the market considerably longer and old figures had it at 4 mil against Saturn's <1 before N64 ever came out, I felt safe in my statement. The article also mentioned PSX's 300+ titles to N64's 50 or so. Neither game comes close to 3DFX accelerated PC graphics, so let's see what happens with the next generation. BTW, 4 player Mario Kart or Diddy Kong is a rip.

Gilligan, You've been on your island of self delusion for too long. Sony HiFi is supposed to be floppy compatible, AND FASTER THAN ZIP. I would rather put the Sony HiFi in my sampler than a Zip. You are comparing a real product with something that's just a concept. Talk about vapor HiFi is it ! Come back to reality.

Rockhead, My friend, You got a Nintendo N64 for Christmas from your girlfriend and you didn't tell us. What a kid!! So secretive. Why don't you tell us about your cool experiences playing games. What are your favorites? What is your high score? And did you score with your generous beau as well? We want to know, Rock the Lump, tell us please. And as soon as you buy that Orb, will you give it the Rock test (drop a rock on it) and see if you can put Nomai disks in it. Why not??? Only $8.50 a disk vs. $30. You don't want to get ripped off. Your pal, David S. When I come to New York again in August (Cold Spring Harbor Lab) will you let me play with your N64??? And by the way, do you have a GI Joe???
