Do we really need yet another Apple-controlled walled garden? Don't we have enough of those already?

Apple is not a gamer company.
Neither was MS, before the first Xbox. Neither was Sony, before the first PlayStation.
Gamers want to be able to tweak their hardware and Apple is not likely to allow this.
Wot, and Nintendo, MS and Sony *do* allow this? Ask geohot about his experiences with that.
