PS3 Apparently A Computer
Rinzai writes to mention an article on Gamasutra, noting a statement by Ken Kutaragi where the CEO states that the PS3 is a computer, not a console. From the article: "He went on to outline a scenario where many parts of the PS3 were upgradeable, much more like a PC, noting: 'Since PS3 is a computer, there are no models but configurations', and continuing (though talking in the theoretical): 'I think it's okay to release a [extended PS3] configuration every year'. It's clear from the comments that Sony is indicating that it will be possible to upgrade hard drives and perhaps even other components easily."

about 1 in 5 of these articles turn out to be anything more than misquotes, press releases out of context, rumors or just simple errors.
We get it, we get it already: Sony = Evil, the console is awful and if you buy it the CEO of Sony will come to your house and shit on your children. Enough already.

I'm a Computer!!

Aaah, so since guns are weapons, it means the computer (and thus the PS3) is a weapon! And because knives are weapons, it means the computer is a knife! And since knives can slice and dice and chop onions and leeks and carrots, and food processors can chop onions and leeks and carrots, it means my computer is a food processor! And since food processors can make smoothies, and blenders can make smoothies, it means my computer is a blender! And since blenders are powered by electricity, and so are toasters, and so are irons and washer-dryer combos and airconditions and cell phones and refrigerators, it means that I now no longer need anything in my home, just a PS3, and a cardboard box!
Thank you, Sony, for simplifying my life!
If you excuse me, I must be off to make a phone call and chop some celery at the same time with my PS3. We'll see how that goes.
No, Mr. Green. Communism is just a red herring.
