    PC's may well be past those specs before the PS3 is even released.

    When it comes to actual in-game looks and performance anyway.

    Yes, take one potatoe and slice with a knife into small sections

    Copyright protection on the current models is built into the BIOS. When you switch on your mooded console the chip overides the original BIOS and loads its own hacked version. If the infomation about the cell chip is correct the copyright protection will be built into the processor itself making it extremly hard to bypass.
    I can see the xbox next having the same type of protection seeing as Microsoft would love to implement the same system into home PCs with the "Fritz" chip

    ya, there is ALWAYS a way around. but my next console is gonna be PS3 first, I'll wait to see if XBOX2 is worth buying or net (on the count of it doesn't have a HDD incl. stock). microsoft is slowly dieing
