Hello Jonathan ! 
 JF> There are those "Web boxes" around here, but I don't think there are
 JF> any Netstations.  Ever hear of WebTV?
Yes, I read T3 [tomorrows technology today] magazine and it has all the 
latest hi-fi, video, TV, and loadsa other new hi-tech stuff too. :)
 JF> Anyhow, I see your point.  They're too general-purposed to satisfy
 JF> everyone except those people who can't afford anything better - and
 JF> even those people would probably be better off with something like a
 JF> Saturn with a NetLink!
Or one of those Game.COM thingies, it can do Internet. For much cheapness.
 JF> Sony as a whole, I guess.  I haven't experienced enough of
 JF> SquareSoft's work to know what their music is generally like.
Me not heard much PSX stuff actually, the demo machines don't usually havethe 
volume up very much. :-/
 JF> I've noticed that the Wipeout XL music CD itself is actually a bit
 JF> expensive here too, compared to more mainstream releases.  Can't
 JF> blame them, though; it's got some of the better electronica out
 JF> there. A PSX would be nice for Wipeout XL (especially if you're
 JF> really strapped for cash), but I would prefer the PC version.  Alas,
 JF> I hear licensing prevented the original music from making it to that
 JF> version, but the game itself is improved somewhat, especially in the
 JF> graphics department.  Picture the PSX version of the game, only in
 JF> 640x480 with texture smoothing on.  Now THAT'S intense.
Nah, if I want a version without all the great music I'd get the Saturn 
version, it's real cheap s/h now. And I wouldn't need to buy a Saturn as I 
already have one.
