i would pay $100 or $200 more if the ps3 could be used as a computer with windows xp and internet. i want the sony ps3 to come with a package that can be used as a computer with internet so instead of buying a new computer and a ps3 i can buy just an upgraded ps3, and save money and mabye have a better computer as well. and maybe play pc games also.
i don't know if the ps3 already has this function, if it does tell me.

yes it can be used as a computer. It prett ymuch is a computer then again technically a calcultor is a computer. The ps3 already comes with a internet browser. It aslo comes with a Linux kernel so yuo can run any linux os as see here for linux installation: http://ps3.qj.net/Video-walkthrough-for-Fedora-Linux-on-your-PS3/pg/49/aid/73469.
IMO linux is better than windows but u can emulate windows suing linux (not sure if xp has been emulated yet) btut yea and now with linux yellow dog coming out desinged for the cell processor it shld be ausome

I only know of Linux for sure, but I'm sure Windows would work fine.
