As for video games, the take-home message is clear: we should all be spending more money on better televisions, graphic cards, video game systems, and sound systems, and we should be encouraging girls to join in and reap the cognitive benefits.
I just spent a few moments puzzling over this because I thought it was saying that by analogy, we should be reaping the benefits of encouraging girls to improve their graphics.
To which my immediate response was “don’t they get plenty of encouragement already?”

Not really...
When I said “encouraging girls to improve their graphics,” I wasn’t talking about video games.
