Dreamcast Machine of the Year

Time Digital, the technology spin-off of Time Magazine, has named Sega Dreamcast its Machine of the Year. Computer, audio, and video technologies were all in the running for Machine of the Year honors. Time Digital singled out Dreamcast both for its advanced design as well as for the speed in which it has made its way into American homes. "We at Sega are honored to have Sega Dreamcast hailed as the 'Machine of the Year' by the respected editorial staff at Time Digital," said Sega's senior vice president Peter Moore. Dreamcast had early picked a "Best of What's New" award from Popular Science Magazine.
