Except it would be a proprietary format, have no games and cost $2700.00 - and need a special $5,000 wide screen monitor... ;)

Console = lose money on hardware sale

Apple's hardware = minimum 40-50% margin

It would also come in many wonderfully cute colors.

Followed by the transparent one - and the mod that let's you hook it up to your iPod... as the console will not natively support Apple's iPod out of the box.. ;)
