Eish.
I really must get my PS1 repaired before there's nobody left who knows what it is.

Did you know they only discontinued manufacturing the PSOne earlier this year? I was quite shocked . ..

i was thinking of buying like a psone cheap cheap and a game or two and hooking up in my car, i dont like console games, but me thinks it would be cool in traffic, then i realised i have no space for that or battery power, and it would look tacky...

so i guess just ignore this post..

Or just get a PSP and tape it to the steering wheel. You can pick them up pretty cheap second hand, guys are dumping them left and right.

Nintendo DS FTW!!! :D (Gotta get me one of those new lite ones . . )

This means bugger-all to me. I will judge it when I see it.

I'm hoping PS3 is a great success, so PS2 prices will come down for my evil plan of world domination using a cluster of PS2's running Linux. It looks like this:

Obtain LOTS of PS2's, build cluster running Linux
? (still haven't figured that one out yet)
Make proffit (ie World domination nha-ha-ha)

well for one i hope the PS3 stays afloat coz it would mean MS will have to drop their prices... so i am looking for a WIN WIN situation... :p

you're going to have to fight the Iranians for them. They want them for guidance chips in their nukes ;)

Why not rather figure out a way to build a computational cluster out of old cell phones?

Doobi cause cellphones don't got no chip in them. well they do but very few has cpu's and the ones that does are expensive and ppl tend not to throw them out. could be nice though, specially with all that built in connectivity lmao. ps2's got cpu's in them and linux runs on them already. I just godda format gentoo on that and I'll be on my way. I saw a cluster of discontinued MSNTV boxes online recently. (http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/12/the-msn-tv-linux-cluster/) Thats what gave me the idea.

Gotta find something similar. You're not going to get PS2's for under a grand for a long time, if the PS1 was anything to go by . . .
