I don't think it's dated, more proven as a solid design. I agree on the triggers, they are aesthetically pleasing but not quite as "trigger like" for FPS games. Would be nice if they sold a concave controller or a company made replacement buttons.
I don't get how the left analog is in the wrong place, to me the 360 one is in the wrong place and it feels more natural having both my thumbs as the same, normal angle. For anyone with smaller hands having both sticks at the bottom is better.

PC games ALWAYS offer you more than on consoles... more options, custom content...etc, and usually cheaper as well.
Biggest problem with PC gaming is, 99% of the factory PC people buy can't play games at all. And there are really very few people who are computer savvy enough to pick out and build their own PC in parts.
Nowadays you can build a PC for under $500 and get performance equivalent to new consoles like PS3 and Xbox360.

Downsides to PC:
-can't play on your couch
-most people don't want a computer hooked to their TV
-cords (unless gamers accept wireless KB/M now, not sure)
-at $500 you can buy any two of the latest consoles, or one console and a bunch of games
-hackers
Sure a company could make PC's that are designed to game, maybe even trim down the OS to optimize gaming. Oh right, that's called a console.
