Arcade games are where I started. My first game was the original Rampage when I was about 4. My parents gave me a NES for Christmas, 1988, and I've been gaming ever since.

"Not only the games, but this new model of PS3 has improved sound and graphics capabilities."

I'm torn about whether or not to buy this. On the one hand, I'm a huge C&C fan, and have played ever iteration since its initial DOS release. On the other hand, it's EA. I really don't like EA.

Perhaps I'll pick up a used copy of the game, that way I'm not directly paying EA a dime.

My fiance's white DS Lite has a cracked hinge, but we haven't bothered to send it in for repair since it hasn't affected anything. My black DS Lite is, as far as I can tell, defect free at the moment.

This does not mean that you can run WoW on your PS3. CrossOver Linux REQUIRES an x86 architecture, and the PS3 is definitely not x86.

From CodeWeavers CrossOver Linux requirements:
# x86 compatible PC system, 200 MHz or higher
(400 MHz+ recommended for QuickTime)
# Linux x86 distribution
...

@Evan:

Everything I've read states that Linux on the PS3 does not have access to the SPE's, but only the PPC processor (a PPE). That will likely prevent it from surpassing today's increasingly standard dual-core CPU's used in PC's.

The only benchmark I've seen rated the PS3 (running Linux) at about the same performance as a low end G5 processor.

@Massive Raaacccceeer:

"So i install it and was so excited and let down that for all the things linux is capable of there was nothing to do once i installed"

You mean nothing other than have a fully functioning computer hooked up to your TV? Linux is an operating system, not an entertainment device. Windows and OSX aren't too entertaining on their own, either.

"its a good thing Sony invented an OS though hopefully itll compete with Apple OS X and XP/Vista"

Are you still talking about Linux? Sony didn't invent that.

I once heard a biology professor liken the "virus" that turns people into zombies in movies to an airborne strain of rabies. I guess he wasn't the only person to notice the similarities.
