What do Sony fans think of the PS3 hardware?

[Max King of the Wild]

its because we consumers dont deal with the hardware, we deal with the content. we play the games and use the apps. but i never went like "that damn cell is so hard to deal with!" while using my ps3 because i dont personally deal with it

exactly. the average consumer and probably above average consumer will have no idea the innards of the ps3 were differentfrom traditional consoles. they will not know developers had a hard time with it. they wont know it was the reason for some decisions.... they will just know the games andwouldnt know the hw was a mess and if you ask them if theyd change the answer would be no
