MMaster23 Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 People seem to forget what an 400 ~ 600$ PC can do ... you get an nice case, core2duo and hefty GPU for that money. It really isn't that expensive... There are 2 reasons why PS3 sucks at being an PC: 1: No ram .. when you run the linux option you barely get 256MB of usable memory. This is by no way enough by modern standards (even in the linux world) 2: PPC architecture ... most software is designed on the x86 / x86-64 platform .. running it on the PPC architecture can require more work to be done to make it work. Not everyone knows how... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
