A Playstation 4 Teardown
Dave Knott writes "Just over one week ahead of the launch of the Playstation 4, Wired has posted an article with a full teardown of Sony's new device. In an accompanying video Sony engineering director Yasuhiro Ootori dismantles the PS4 piece by piece, describing each component and showing just what is contained inside the sleek black box."
That's super of them, to give the modders a head start like that!

I've got it!

And then spin the console counter-clockwise!
Just think of the throughput! That laser will be moving across the disc so fast, Sony will have to build hardware that works with 0's and 1/2's instead of 0's and 1's!
I'll let you in on a little tip.
Just the tip?
Because I'm pretty sure I know how that game ends ...
