The PS3 slim uses 95 watts of power, most bluray players will use a third of that. If you're environmentally conscious, this is something else to take into account.

crap, I forgot about that. It is one of the really big reasons on why I am considering building an entertianment PC that can do everything the PS3 can do and more with the exception of playing games and blu-ray movies.

I can build a single board computer that uses 17W total, while my PC takes ~110W and the PS3 takes even more (non-slim). It isn't worth keeping my PS3 and PC on just to stream music. >200W compared to 17W for the same task.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy
