Proof: $199 360 Arcade and a price cut on Sept 7th {Xbox 360 Fanboy}
Aug 4th 2008 12:33AM Something doesn't seem right here.
There would be no advantage to getting the new 60GB unit, as one could easily add the hard drive later and still be paying a total of $300 (60GB hard drive will be $99, correct?). Plus, you would also have an additional 256mb card.
And, if you added a 120GB drive, this brings your total to $350. That's much cheaper than the Elite.
I realize you get the "black" and HDMI, but seriously...these rumors are certainly not inline with their current pricing hierarchy.
Video: Downloading content with Blu-ray interactive {Engadget}
Jan 10th 2008 12:25AM Anyone else pick up that line about the portable copy? He say's it will be playable on the PSP, but not just any "portable player". When they mentioned it I thought, "Wow, that's cool". Then he says it's playable only on the PSP...Then I thought, "Wow, very alarming!" If they are locking it down to the PSP that is...
Also, he talked up the blu-ray capabilities of the Playstation 3 by saying it's been updated for 1.1 and will continue to be updated as needed, but the stand-alones...that's another story. "Sorry, but here are some shiny new sony players for you to choose from!"
All supporters of Blu-ray, buyers beware...I get the feeling Sony is going to try and corner the market on all these new features and lock them down to benefit themselves.

Jul 13th 2007 11:43AM I like how the amazon ads on the homepage lists a Toshiba HD-DVD player for sale. That's funny.
Gates: PS3 will never have graphics advantage {Xbox 360 Fanboy}

Apple announces PowerMac G5 Repair Extension Program for Power Supply Issues {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Nov 7th 2006 12:06PM I believe I was one of the first to experience these issues. Had on-site applecare techs who made 5 trips to my house trying to figure out the issue. With no luck fixing it, 2 months later I ended up getting a brand new machine, oh and the mac pro just did get released at this time so I spent a few hundred more dollars and now have a Quad 3.0 out of it!
I was sad to see my beloved dual g5 go, but i haven't looked back since.
Hopefully, others do not experience the 2 month long tech issue I encountered. Glad to see they've finally figured out the problem.
Microsoft whines, sues Sony... now that's just sad {PS3 Fanboy}
Oct 24th 2006 3:17PM This is the type of thing I just hate. And besides, you can't compare any of this until the PS3 is released, they have a functioning online service, and everything else they've "promised". We've all heard their tall tales before. I don't believe it until we see it in action. Conclusion, this chart is not even accurate for the PS3 until the product is out and everything is legit.
How about some multimedia details on the PS3? {PS3 Fanboy}
Oct 19th 2006 5:16PM This all sounds promising, however, I am most interested in the PS3's ability to stream files from other devices on my network...similiar to what the Xbox 360 does. However, the 360 cripples you on format compability and no video unless you have MCE. Hopefully, the PS3 does not.
Famitsu head says 360 is dead in Japan {Xbox 360 Fanboy}
Oct 13th 2006 9:26PM Is anyone else tired of hearing about MS in japan? It's like beating a dead horse. I just wish as much effort was put into fans like you and I that really like their product, instead of pulling out the red carpet for an audience that no matter MS does, wants nothing to do with anything not labeled sony or nintendo.
When will MS just start focusing on their strengths instead?
HD DVD and Blu-ray released on October 10th 2006 {Engadget HD}
Oct 9th 2006 11:17PM Hmurchinson, I agree. I was wondering if it was just me that thought HD DVD was releasing movies I would consider watching. All of Blu-ray's offerings to-date just have been of no interest to me whatsoever. I can not wait for Polar Express in HD! There is always this talk about studio support, size, etc...Has anyone ever stopped to consider the actual content? Maybe I am missing something, but I personally think HD DVD has been putting out better quality movies.

Oct 4th 2006 8:17PM ATSC -> over-the-counter, scratch that, over-the-air television. It's free, much like this TV for the winner! Advertisers with great commercials get my attention, so it all evens out.
