If you own a PS3, I suggest you burn it. Because you don't want technology that Microsoft helped develop inside your gaming console. That RSX GPU is a PC GPU developed to Microsoft Direct X 9 specifications.

As far as I know the RSX in PS3 is accessed through an API based on OpenGL ES and nVidia's CG shader language. The fact that is is capable in hardware of features equivalent to Direct3d 9 or shader model 3 doesn't make it DirectX compliant. That's something you can claim of the driver, not of the hardware (DirectX is an API, not a set of hardware specifications).

@Xoj

Actually MS makes very nice mice and keyboards when it comes to hardware. Though I can say that i despise their practices in the PC business, thus I will always be wary of them.

But I can't say I hate any game company... though I strongly dislike companies like Activision for their living off the milking of a few franchises.
