That's exactly why I bought a PS3, I never wanted a PS3 but after the third breakdown, I went shopping. I won't say that the XBox is "better" for gaming, nor will I agree that the dashboard is better... I kinda like the PS3 set-up. I also like the ability to hook up virtually any USB device and some blue tooth devices to the PS3. BTW I'm the one that mentioned surfing the net, I have a blue tooth keyboard so it isn't too bad but I agree that my PC is worlds better. It does make an adequate back up net roamer imho.
