Top 10 System Sellers in a Buyer's Recession

Jeff Effendi of MSXbox-World.com writes "Possibly among one of the handful of industries floating its head above murky recessive waters, the gaming industry has thrived off oxygen in the form of an increase in leisure time during these not-so-economically-fantastic times. Perhaps a telling statistic derived from minutes-logged-on-Facebook from April 2008 to April 2009 will better illustrate our point. Statistics tell us that during April 2008, 1.7 billion minutes of our time were spent on Facebook poking, tagging, commenting and status updating each other. That's 28.33 million hours, 1,180,555 days, or approximately 3,234 years on Facebook in total as a combined effort."
