[QUOTE="trancejeremy, post: 2937371, member: 924"] The thing is, you are comparing the $600 model to the $400 360. When the $500 PS3 has everything the $400 360 has (20 gig Hard drive, wireless controllers, etc). So that's what you should be comparing it to. And when you consider you get basically the same the 360 has, plus the Blu Ray player, it's not that bad. The $600 model has a bigger hard drive, plus Wi-Fi (which you'd have to pay another $100 for if you want in the 360). And in both cases, AFAIK, you will be able to hook it up to the PC without shelling out $150 for the Media Center version of XP. (Assuming it will work the same way the PSP can hook up to the PC) Also, if the rumors are true that the PS3 will run Linux, then that is huge. You will be able to get all sorts of homebrew apps and such. (Just rumors at this point, though). [/QUOTE]
