With the Linux 2.6.20-rc6 kernel out the door, Phoronix has written a performance comparison of the Linux 2.6.20-rc6 kernel against the 2.6.19 and 2.6.19.2 kernels in a variety of benchmarks."

    ...It was so nice, for once, to actually read a benchmark article that didn't have an abundance of tech-related paragraphs that are way to deep and technical. This article had the meat and information I wanted, in nice and easy to understand graphs (I like pictures!!!) and it was quick to read. Thanks, /.

    Can anyone explain the PS3 support? Had any experience with it?
