"30 times faster" regarding Folding@Home

Regarding this. The article is worded incredibly bizzarely. On the one hand, it says that PS3s do 30x as much as the PC average . On the other hand, it says that tfdjkdfjl;jdsfgihewhe 30x figure is based on a single $1000 PC, which is contradictory; OR, it says that the 30x above the average is equivalent to a $1000 PC. I don't know how the hell to interpret it, though the latter makes more sense considering the

"1 Gigaflop per PC
3 Gigaflops per Intel Mac
30 Gigaflops of Folding Power per PS3"

Which seems to imply that they're working off pure averages. -- Consumed Crustacean 15:38, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

(outdent)Okay. Know what? I just removed that last line myself. Fact is, unless anyone can say how it's possible to entirely omit that the GPU's performed twice as well as the PS3's and stay neutral, and unless they can say how it's neutral to compare PS3's to unidentified PC's, there's simply no way it can go in without a far better source.

Where does it state the GPU's outperformed the PS3? I think your 360 Bias is starting to show though again... I was kinda hoping self elected article police here were neutral, but it seems not...

Could somebody message me with a website that shows/logs how much power the PS3 is consuming when running folding@home. Thanks Socby19 00:17, 24 March 2007 (UTC)SocBy19

Anyone who wants to read about the differences between the PS3 and GPU Folding@Home clients can read it here. Basically, you can't directly compare them fairly. The GPU is more powerful than the PS3 in flops, just about any way you calculate it, but the PS3 is more flexible in the types of calculations. Also, the GPU client is still beta, and it requires a fairly specific setup on a computer for it to work. It needs an ATI graphics card with a certain set of drivers and Windows XP. Granted, the PS3 client is extremely specific, but that's not nearly as much of an obstacle, as the PS3's all have the same type and design of processor and memory, which are the important parts for FAH. Bottom line on calculation ability, straight from the horse's mouth: " is more flexible than GPU's, but less flexible than CPU's in the calculations it can perform. Consequently, it is more powerful than CPU's, but less powerful than GPU's." Bpogi 03:16, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

Semi-protection tag

I have notice that the Xbox 360 and Wii articles both have small, unobtrusive tags in the upper right corner. The PlayStation 3, on the other hand, has a glaring banner-like note. Can an administrator change the PS3 tag so lt looks like the 360's and the Wii's? Thanks...J.delanoy 15:04, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

Irish price

I have stripped out the 21% Irish VAT from the price that feeds into the toUSD tag for both 20GB and 60GB. Stifle (talk) 10:37, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

PS3's new Controller

As you may know, the PS3's SIXAXIS will no longer lack the rumble feature, as the company that sued Sony has dropped their lawsuit. You may want to edit that in.

Unfortunately nothing has been confirmed yet. Immersion (patent holders of rumble technology) and Sony have ended their legal dispute and they say that they are in talks about implementing rumble in the PS3's controllers. I don't think it should be added to the wiki page yet. Crazedmodder 03:08, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

Danish price

(Someone with edit privilige can change add:) The suggested retail price for the 60 Gb model is 5499 DKK, the introductory price is 5299 DKK and, pre-orders are generally sold for 4999 DKK. 1 EUR = 7,58 DKK.

Price - pre-tax-post-tax

I have serious issues with the current situation where the US price is listed EXCLUDING taxes, but other regions (UK and most of Europe) are INCLUSIVE of taxes. For casual readers, it looks like the Euro price of the PS3 is vastly inflated over the US price, but the reality is the tax rate in Europe is a large contributer to the price difference. There is a small cop-out sentence implying this, but it;s not enough.

The problem: The price INC-TAX in the US varies state by state, due to differing tax levels and applicable taxes, so I don't think it's practical to do a INC-TAX price for the US, so perhaps we need to make all the other regions pre-tax to create a level comparision, or find some better way of highlighting the differenc.. Discuss....

The conversion to USD price for the UK hasn't had the VAT stripped out. The console is £425 inc VAT here, or £361.70 ex. VAT. That would convert to approx US$711 at today's exchange rate of 1.9639 to the pound.

BBUS 238 PS3 REVIEW

Sony Playstation 3 is one of three new “next generation” gaming consoles, competing with Microsoft Xbox 360 and the Nintendo Wii. It is the most expensive console ever to be produced and has a wide array of high tech features to back up its price tag; some of which the rest of the gaming world has yet to catch up to. It delivers stunning graphics and brings a smile to every first time user with its sleek black and chrome design, Bluetooth 6axis wireless controllers, internet connectivity as well as blu-ray playback and much more. Sony has definitely opened the door to the future with this monster minicomputer.

References include:

The PS3 requires no additional software or operating requirements, it is built ready-to-go straight from the box so long as it is used for its main gaming purpose. Additional cables are required for use of the HDMI output, optical output for surround sound and Ethernet port for internet connectivity. However, it should be noted that WiFi is built in, which most people today would rather use. The PS3 comes in two hard drive options, 20GB and the upgraded 60GB; upgrades are possible as it is a laptop hard drive. Furthermore, to efficiently use the internet browser, most would prefer to use a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse which is also not included.

The PS3 comes more loaded then a Mercedes with cool high tech features that anyone can appreciate. • Blu-Ray player: out-doing the Xbox 360 which comes with HD DVD, blu-ray is the most advanced media playback today. It is of higher quality in terms of picture and sound, and it has a greater capacity. • WiFi: allowing users to connect to any available network and browse the internet using the build in browser. • Multi-format Memory Card Reader: allows users to download music, pictures and other media files onto the PS3 hard drive from a wide array of memory cards and flash drives. Pictures can be viewed as slideshows, music can be put into play lists etc. • 6Axis Bluetooth wireless controller: users can tip the controller up, down, left, right to reflect what they want the character or car to do. This enhances the gaming experience. Controllers vibrate as well for high impact games.

The PS3 has many useful features; however, it is yet to be fully introduced into the business world; although I’m sure many business men from around the world use it to unwind after a hard day’s work! In addition to its gaming purpose for business men, the PS3 has an option in its media hub or Xross Media Bar (XMB) as it is often referred to, to install other operating systems! Yes, this means the PS3 has the ability to be used as a full functioning computer. Linux distributions, Ubuntu, Fedora Core 5, Gentoo, Debian and Yellow Dog have been ran on the PS3 60GB version. Furthermore, it has been reported that some technically advanced users have been able to get Windows XP working on their PS3!! As one can imagine to have such a powerful operating system working on a gaming console is a huge step towards the future; business men all over the world might soon be able to play high def games, watch blu-ray movies, listen to music and watch slideshows during their lunch breaks!!! With this being known, obviously, the PS3 can also be used in the board room, the home theater and office! Also, because of its WiFi ability it may soon also be used as a chat network within the office, allowing employees to chat, send and receive files and, if the boss isn’t looking, get a couple rounds of Fight Night 3 in! It’s simply a matter of time before the rest of the world catches up to Sony!

In my opinion Sony’s PS3 is a monster in today’s technological world. There is no doubt in my mind that it will survive as the power it contains is beyond today’s norm. It is the cheapest blu-ray player in the market and of Sony quality. It is fully media functional, playing all common media files and beyond. After having experienced the PS3 first hand, I would grade it an A! It is extremely user friendly, and it stands tall over its competitors in almost all aspects! Although it is pricey, when looking at all its high tech features and endless capabilities it is worth its price
