2007

I purchased the Sony Playstation 3 with the 60gb harddrive and am amazed at the graphics display and the wifi capabilities. I also downloaded the Linux OS and utilized which is my first experience with Linux with no complaints. Easy to navigate, the PS3 is very sleek and sexy looking. I did purchase a USB cooler pad as it does get hot if playing for a long period of time but with the cooler attached to the USB port no problems with heat. I love it and the only complaint I have is that there were few games available early on but that has changed. I would still ask that there would be more games geared for the middle aged adult as my friends refuse to play with their kids unlike me! Enjoy!
