serious answer
no, it failed on the media center aspects. It is a power hog, loud (in comparison to the silent PC's you can build), doesn't play Hulu or pretty much any other web based TV very well (either it doesn't play them at all, or you have to have your PC on anyways) and fails to share files with my PC without having to purchase other software despite what it claims. I actually went out and built a HTPC because the PS3 couldn't do what it needed to do.
However, I think the current ad campaign is about 100x better than the one they used at the start of the generation with the morphing PS3.
