Run Windows XP on your PS3
Need another reason to purchase a PS3 (besides the super cheap Blu-ray player, it essentially costing the same as an Xbox 360, or the other very good reasons)? How about the weekend challenge of loading Windows XP onto your machine? It already has an awesome photo viewer, plays movies, accesses the internet, now you can run your favorite OS as well. The video is pretty long, but what else are you doing today?

the ps3 is clearly better than the xbox 360...i actually own both and they both cpst exactly the same when you finish setting it up. first of all, the ps3 is 400 and the xbox 360 is 350. but with the xbox 360 you need to get xbox live or theres no point. so when you buy a year of xbox live its $400 total. ok then 2 weeks later you get the red rings of death so then you need to send it to microsoft and wait the year to get it back and finish the warranty....lol. anyways the ps3 is faster and better. it may be huge but it looks so sexy. also the ps3 just came out so it still doesnt have the best games out there. oh and if you want to watch decent videos for xbox 360 you would need to buy the hd-dvd player so another $100. and if you prefer wi-fi its another $100. so when it comes down to it, the ps3 is the better buy.
and microsoft is so stupid they still arent making xbox 360s with the HDMI output. and when are they going to fix the red ring of death scenario?

PEOPLE I AM I COMPUTER PROGRAMMER. I AM GOING TO GO BY THE NAME OF INTRO BECAUSE I DO NOT WANT TO OFFEND MY EMPLOYERS OR RISK MY JOB. THERE IS ALOT OF ARGUMENTS OVER WHICH CONSOLE IS BETTER 360 OR THE PS3.
I HAVE MADE GAMES FOR BOTH MICROSOFT AND SONY
IN SHORT THE BETTER CONSOLE IS THE PS3. NO DOUBT ABOUT IT.
jdk4174 SAID: THE 360 IS TWICE AS POWERFUL. THIS IS ######## SIMPLY BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT A 360 HAS 3 PROCESSORS AND A PS3 HAS 7. SO JUST IGNORE ANYTHING HE SAYS.
ANOTHER FACT IS THAT 360S ARE STILL USING DVDs. A PS3 USES BLU-RAY DISKS. BLU-RAY DISKS HAVE ALLOT MORE MEMORY THAN DVDs THEY ARE THINER AND CAN BE READ IN ALMOST HALF THE TIME. ANOTHER COOL THING ABOUT BLU-RAY DISKS IS THAT THEY ARE ALMOST SEE THROUGH!
ONE THING THAT HAS REALLY PUT ME OFF OF X BOX IS THE SIZE OF THE CONTROL PAD! PS3 PADS ARE JUST THE RIGHT SIZE AND ONE MORE THING YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT X BOX PADS. YOU HAVE TO BUY THE WIRELESS ONES SEPRATLY AND THEY REQUIRE BATTERIES! THE DEFAULT PS3 PADS ARE WIRELESS WITH IN-BUILT BATTERIES WHICH YOU CHARGE BY PLUGGING INTO YOUR PS3 AND THEY LAST FOR 3 DAYS NON STOP!.
GRAPHICALLY WISE THE TWO CONSOLES ARE ABOUT THE SAME. WHEN NEW EXCLUSIVE PS3 GAMES COME OUT THAT ARE NOT ON THE X BOX(e.g. Tekken) YOU WILL SEE WHAT A PS3 CAN REALLY DO.
AS FOR THE INTERNET SPEED A PS3 IS NOTICEABLY FASTER BECAUSE OF THE AMOUNT OF PROCESSORS IT HAS.
THIS IS THE LAST AND MOST IMPORTANT THING I AM GOING TO SAY ON THE MATTER. WITH A PS3 YOU CAN RUN WINDOWS OR LINUX ON IT. IF YOU DON’T BELEIV ME RESEARCH IT ON GOOGLE!
THAT IS ALL I HAVE TO SAY ON THE MATTER.
