The $99 Apple TV
is a subversive little device, it sits there playing your music, slideshows, and movies while quietly plotting world domination as a GAME CONSOLE? Yes, I said it. Just think about it. Apple TV is reportedly still flying off the shelves, and despite being labeled “just a hobby” by none other than Steve Jobs himself, it seems to be taken quite seriously by throngs of adoring fans.

It's already won a coveted spot in the living room: beef up the processor a little bit (maybe use the new dual – core A5 chip, just used in the iPad 2) beef up the GPU, add a little more flash storage for saved games (or make use of that brand spanking new data center Steve just built in North Carolina) and add an Apple designed controller - create a sleek, fast new one, or use your iTouch
, or iPhone instead. What do you think? Do you believe its possible for our favorite fruit company to morph the studious Apple TV into a next-gen game console? To take on the big boys like the PS3
, Nintendo Wii
, or Xbox 360
? leave a comment below.
