PlayStation 3 Available For PreOrder in U.K.

Posted by ryuzaki0 on Friday June 16, 2006 @08:25AM from the it's-a-compuuuter dept.

motorheadabega writes "BBC is carrying the story that as of today the PS3 is available for preorder for only £550 ($1,020). All that and they can't even guarantee delivery before Christmas." From the article: "The electronics giant had originally planned to launch the new console in the spring, but was forced to delay because of technical problems with its high-definition Blu-ray DVD drive. The PS3 comes in two different models. The basic model has a 20GB hard drive, while the more expensive model comes with a 60GB one. The lower end model also lacks wi-fi, a slot for memory cards and a HDMI port for high-definition programmes. "

Gotta Love Best Buy

Basics only, the PS3 is said to have 256mb of RAM, where as this computer has 2GB of RAM. The size of the harddrive is 320GB, which is about 5 times larger than the 60GB harddrive that comes with the PS3. The processor of the computer is 2.2 Ghz. I have yet to see any specifics on the processor used or the power of the processor for the PS3. These are just the very basic differences.

See what I mean about computers for the same price being far more powerful?
