In regards to RAM, you forget that Sony requires 74 MB (I think of the Cell accessible half) to be reserved for OS and other background Ops, where as Microsoft only requires 40MB. This makes a memory difference.


Is this the latest number? I know that with every big update, the PS3 number is being reduced thus making this less and less of a factor. If you could tell me if this is the current number or the one at the PS3's launch then that would help in comparing.


The latest numbers were 52mb for the PS3 OS (as of 1.8, no idea if 1.9 reduced it further) and 20mb for the 360.


 I think you got the number wrong. It used to be 90MB, and a recent update lowered it into the 70s.360 was 40MB at the start. I don't know if it's changed since then.
