A Fascinating study... (about video games)

I always wondered who liked xbox 360's... This definitely gave me some of the "Professor's Brand LAWLZ (R)(TM)."
A recent survey by the Solutions Research Group found that this holiday season, men would prefer a PS3, and women would prefer a Wii. In a poll gathered from 1,200 consumers, the group ranked the top electronics people said they want this Christmas. For men, the PS3 grabbed the #6 spot, beating out the Xbox 360 and Wii, who nabbed the 9th and 10th spots respectively. For women, the Wii snagged #8 on the list, while the other two systems didn’t make it to the top 10.

Based on these figures, i think we can draw definitive conclusion: the Xbox 360 is most preferred by hermaphrodites. While everyone’s wondering what’s under Master Chief’s helmet, maybe we should be asking what’s in his pants

EDIT: by the way, you can get a PDF of the public release of the study here. It's kinda interesting, yet predictable. people want GPS / laptops/ HDTV's ... who would've guessed...

    That must be a pretty terrible survey if the PS3 took 6th.

    Well, look at it this way. A lot of people ask for stuff as Christmas, because then they don't have to buy it. When I was younger, I always asked for expensive stuff I couldn't afford.

    And I wouldn't mind a PS3. If someone gave me one, that'd be cool, I could keep myself occupied with it. I just wouldn't pay $600 for it.

    I'd ask for it for Christmas from some rich relatives if I had some.

    I think I read that they're dropping the price to 400 dollars though. Would you pay 400 for one?

    I've never payed $400 for anything in my life!

    I think the most expensive thing I've bought was my DS, and that was after the price dropped to $130...

    Maybe, the new Ratchet and Clank game is on PS3, isn't it?

    NEVER! I'd pay $250 for a PS3, max.

    EDIT: OMFG! Triple posts.

    $250 is an ok price for a console. Heck, I'd buy one for 250 and when I wasn't playing stuff I'd let that distributed computing thing run, those 8 processors could do some good. For SCIENCE.

    So I suppose that makes me a girl? Statistically speaking, of course.

    Though I guess I don't qualify since I never wanted a Wii for Christmas, I got one on launch day.
