Vidir

Hope it is ok to post this question here tho it is not mmo relatet,could not find any honest forums elsewere.

Wich of those machines has better web suport? (Reading  internet site's and updating their web browsers)

Will any or both those machines support mouse and keyboard?

If Xbox one has windows8 as operative system can you install what ever windows based programs on the machine and use it as a regular computer?

Thanx.

I can't speak for the Xbox one, but I can say that the PS4 will support USB keyboards, not sure why you would need a mouse.  

Ultimately it's a Ford vs Chevy vs VW vs Toyota vs whatever else you want.  Some love Xbox, some love PS.  I went with the PS4 because my 360 broke a few months after I bought it for seemingly no reason, and my old xbox did the same.

From what I can tell Playstation is a stronger system overall, it also appears less clunky to me.

Xbox has better games at release IMO.  I truly do believe as more games trickle out PS4 will prove to be the better system.

I have both systems. I prefer the PS4 because I like to game, Xbox One is more of a multimedia entertainment system, without nailing one specific thing really well.

 

Which of those machines has better web support?

At the moment, PS4 when it comes to speed and ease of use, but to be honest they both suck in this department.

 

Will any or both those machines support mouse and keyboard?

PS4 keyboard mouse support: https://support.us.playstation.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5087

Xbox One will require a third party accessory: http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/12/10/xbox-one-gets-keyboard-ps4-controller-support-with-usb-device

Keyboard and mouse support on Xbox One is extremely laggy and makes it unplayable for games atm as seen in the video on the link. Whereas PS4 had keyboard/mouse support planned since day one. Devs will be able to include keyboard and mouse support in their PS4 games if they wish.

No, you cannot even stream your media from your Windows computer on your Xbox One via your own network.

Stick with a good PC. If you must get a console and assuming you have a good PC get a PS4. Quite simply more of the Xboxes games come out for the PC.

Both in 6 months.

If you can find one get a PS4. I've been trying for 2 weeks to find one and no luck yet.

I myself usually wait 6-8 months to wait till the bugs are fixed and then I make my choice.

Last time Went with 360 as when I was ready to buy, the PS3 "lost" it's backwards compatibility.

 

Not a fan of the WII-U, but the Wii is my daughters favorite system and it is getting harder and harder to find things for it.

Both machines for game support are identical.  You can use a tablet for "augmented" gameplay , yadda yadda.

 

The main differences are that the PS4 is a "superior" machine in terms of it plays games and watches netflix etc, in native 1080p resolution.  The XBOne does not.  I think only one game does and that is need for speed.

However, the XBOne is designed to be integrated into your home entertainment system to be the king.  You are able to run your cable and everything else through your xbox, even use it as a DVR if you wish.

 

In a nutshell, if you do not care about gaming, XBOne.  If gaming is your thing, and you aren't looking to add a master control unit then the PS4 is your machine.

 

I enjoy my PS4, but other than watching netflix/hulu and playing assassin's creed 4, it sits quiet, waiting patiently for its master to return.

lol, both of them are full of glitches at the moment.  PS4 has no games being released up until Q2-Q3 2014. The Xbox one on the other hand has a lot more gadget support and way more games being released before the PS4 but the only problem is that it's full of hardware malfuntions.  Example : The disc reader eventually slacks off or something and scratches your disc to the point it is unreadable.   Seriously I'd wait until Summer / Fall 2014 to even consider buying any of the 2 , prices will go down a little and some of the major issues will be fixed by then.

Because not everyone can use a controller. I know I can't try as I might.

Neither.  Not for my MMORPG gaming.

To stream media from your pc to your xbox one just right click the media on your pc and select play to Xbox One.

Threshold will unify all Microsoft products. Not enough info out yet though.

My number one reason for avoiding Xbone this time around is how they completely slapped us in the face and shit in our breakfast with their release intentions. they had to back pedal on a scale that Presidents would be proud of in order to gain support back.

 

Add onto that with the PS4 being less expensive, a more powerful product, and more reliable with how they deal with issues (as in they actually deal with them, not just forcing you to go rebuy the console) PS4 will get my money in about 7 or 8 months after the launch bugs are dealt with in both consoles.
