What is the best console to start programing on. As far as good learning experience, beginner level, least cost. Im just curious because I may want to do some console stuff after I get farther with DirectX and OpenGL. I suppose DirectX is pretty worthless with any console...except maybe Xbox?

I''m not an expert on the subject, but I think(could be wrong) that each console has their own graphics library. I think XBOX uses DirectX, but I''m not sure. I would say some of the easiest consoles to start programming on are probably GBA(that is what I am doing) and Dreamcast(experimented, but got no further than that). Hope this helps. Also, these two are very cheap.
