You know I'm mostly just fucking around! I thought that the article was interesting and quite frankly, I'm a little amazed that you can do that and get a computer with that capacity, for that cost, that is that energy efficient.

PS2's are a good example... they used the cheapest lasers they could get their hands on and they failed left and right. Trust me, I've repaired 100+ PS2's and 99% of them were laser failures. Out of the dozen or so Xbox's I've repaired, no one problem has been consistent though I've done a few with botched softmods...

That said, I own an Xbox 360. As far as the console wars are concerned, even beyond RROD issues the PS3 is the superior machine. I expect the tables will turn for the next gen systems depending on each companies marketing strategy. Either be the first one out with a new shiney system... or continue developing technology after your competitors launch and fire back with a superior system. Both companies have tried it both ways... let's see where their stomach is the next time around.
I've had the same PS2 for...let me count...8 years now. And had zero problems.

I even pulled mine off the stand and it hit the floor from a 4.5' drop in college. Still going strong.
