You're an idiot.

They just released a 299$ Slim 120Gb PS3. That's pretty cheap.

Nothing, their production cost dropped by 70% and is around 240$.

They really need to make it cheap if they want it to rise and do something against XBox 360.

You can't install OS anymore like Linux. That's about it.

Is it just linux? Thats not so bad. They better leave the fan. My slim ps2 overheats and i know those bastards did somthing to it. The 299 dollar price is just what I have been waiting for though. My 80 gig died. Is it backwards compatable?
