Personally I prefer the George Forman grill look...

Did you get any other games?

If I want a PS3 I'll pick one up in Japan made custom to take english games or even better order it although, I was thinking on buying their PS3 consoles for cheap yen in Japan and then selling them here for big bucks, after all isn't that the way the americans made their economy?

Why do you need to customise it for English games?

Two points:

- Where games are concerned, the console AND all the games are region free
- They're on Blu-Ray discs so the developer can stick all languages on the one disc and still have space to work out Pi to 32 million places.

The games don't have regions. Apparently, the movie player does, however.

I don't see the point in making a new thread for this, so:

A group of "dedicated fans" have got XP running via some emulation on Fedora Core 5 Linux.

I'm guessing they used Wine. I know this program allows you to use Windows based prohgrams on Linux, so it's probably just a varient program.

WetWired 2006-11-27 07:57 AM

If you actually read the article, you'll notice that it shows the XP startup screen, which would imply that they are using a PC emulator to run real XP software, whereas wine only emulates the Windows environment. Really, for XP to be usefull on the PS3, they have to, since noone compiles Windows software for the Cell Broadband Engine.

Tyrannicide 2006-11-27 10:52 AM

Yea, thats why I siad it was something like a varient of wine. I couldnt think of it, so I used wine as an idea ground since it emulates programs.

Ima have to see what it may be, so i'll post/edit later.

WetWired 2006-11-27 12:27 PM

It's nothing like wine. Wine is a layer to make Windows apps work as part of X. What they are doing is like Virtual PC, which emulates the processor and BIOS.

WIn4Lin or WMware?

Something like that maybe?
