Personally I think its a steal because you are getting so much more than just a bluray player and bluray player alone cost $1000+ dollars.

i don't understand what you have say, if a blueray player cost 1000$ the ps3 is cheaper ! i think the ps3 is sold for 700$ (ok, its not cheep, but it's the first generation) and buying a ps3 you are buying a video game console, a functional pc, and a blueray player. that's 3 in 1 and for the price of 1 too.

yeah,running linux with the speed of a p3 800 :D Read some reviews around...you'll find that u can't access @ the dsp and @ the gpu...so,u have only one GP unit for GP programs...that performs like a p3. Still happy of your cheep pc? :)

here do you get that info? the videos doesn't show that! and you can try to build a P3 functional pc, whit a blueray reader, a 3d card capable of display 8 heavy videos, capeble of playing games at HD quality. and that kind of sheat in the space of a PS3, and then tell me the price. and the linux core that was test was build before the ps3 has put a step outside the sony factory. that tells a diferent story!

very touchy subject i cant stand the ps3, its way to expensive for a casual gamer. also it has lost alot of exclusive titles that have been released to the xbox 360, it really is not much better than the 360 for way more money you could almost buy a nintendo wii and an xbox 360 for the price of a ps3, also who ever decided 7 controller spaces what a random number u go with 6 or 8 not 7 what were they thinking. also everyone is so excited it still plays ps2 games but sony also said b/c of the blu ray disc player it may not play them all and it plays some of them differently and not as well, so your not even garunteed that they all work on it!

well i have seen the spec and let me tell u i think they were more int in making a console which can handle piracy rather than givin enjoyment we cant have pirated cds and blue ray is dam cvostly it will not have a good response in india i would rather go for x box 360 its good dvds and also i can get pirated cds you why ps2 was a hit cause the games for ps2 were easily available on stores and so many people thought of buying the console
