DM>  I thought I read that the Katana, was going to have a DVD
 DM>  drive? (You said it would be 4x cd drive)
  That isn't going to happen.  DVD-ROM drives for PCs cost $500 Canadian, 
which is more expensive than an entire N64 system - plus a game or two - 
right now.  Sega's emphasis is on the graphics this time, and as such the 
most expensive parts on the Katana are undoubtedly the 3D hardware and its 
memory.
 DM>  I was joking about Quake. I meant it like why not just put
 DM>  more games on game com that we are getting tired of! Isn't
 DM>  Mortal Kombat 3 on there? Couldn't they think up a better
 DM>  name for it too? Game.com|Gameboy? They could have put color
 DM>  too. That's can't be too expensive now, GameGear did it
 DM>  almost six years ago.
 DM>  Who wants a GAMECOM anyway? It's exactly what we don't need.
 DM>  Sure you can play duke 3d, but duke 3d is also on 64, psx,
 DM>  Saturn, and PC? Anyone who would buy a GAMEBOY probably
 DM>  already has one of these.
  Actually, I think the Game.com has the Mortal Kombat Trilogy, not just the 
most recent individual incarnation.
  The main reason for getting a Game.com is portability.  You can't lug your 
PC or N64 around with you just so you can play Duke 3D.  If you're leaving 
your computer often, a Game.com is perfect.
 DM>  Wasn't there a cutting edge portable 5 years ago, I think it
 DM>  was called LYNX. It had color and all that. Who bought one?
 DM>  Better yet, I'll look for it.....in that closet where
 DM>  consoles go when they die.
  I think some people bought it, but its maker - Atari - messed up with it, 
as they seem to do with any hot technology.  In this case, I think a poor 
selection of titles did it in.
