If the difference is only $50, you'd be nuts not to buy a PS3. It's 2.0 compliant with the latest firmware, which just means it enables the web based features of newer movies that include them.
As for that desktop PC comparison: total bunk. Who wants to use a PC to watch movies in the living room/entertainment room?
Start watching your movies with a keyboard and mouse and then switch to your Windows Media remote once your movie player app is open?
No way.
PCs are fine for watching media at your desk. But unless you have a Windows PC that can be navigated 100% with a remote with one touch power up from shut down, insert disk and watch movie play within 30 seconds, not in the living room.
It's fine that PC makers are trying to move the PC from the office/desk to the living room, but I have a Windows Media Player PC and there's no way I'd ever use that as my primary media player over a PS3.
A cheap Blu-Ray player with stripped features would be a better home theater solution than a "Blu-Ray PC" special.
