If there are no games, no one will have a ps3 lying around. That's the
point you and Roy seem to be missing. It doesn't matter that the ps3
can run Linux. It doesn't matter if blu-ray is the better format. It
only matters that there are games worth playing on it, and currently
it seems that it is not the case for the Playstation3. Roy desperately
wants to make this into some sort of Linux news which is strange
considering that no one is buying it to put Linux on it, and no one is
buying it period (relatively speaking). Roy doesn't care about Linux,
he just hates Microsoft.
