drive is front middle in the small gap right next to the 2 usb ports, its a slot loader like original PS3s

Will it have a manual eject like the PS3 slim?

I don't know about anyone else but I think that's probably the best looking gaming console I've ever seen. It just works so well, especially when it's upright.

Yeah, I think it has beaten the Dreamcast as my all time favorite looking console.

I always thought the Dreamcast was kind of ugly actually

This though is seriously nice, it's like looking at the architecture of a really well designed building. The only view that it doesn't look that great from is when it's laying flat and you look at if from the side.

just imagine what the PS4 slim will look like! O_O!!!

Not long until November, cant wait!

I will admit it is growing on me! I didnt think much of it at first though.

Rather modify consoles or Sony is planning an early release. Maybe September or October, I hope Sony don't get too cocky. Bad things tend to happen with a company cockiness get out of hand XD

Don't mind an early release; as long as the initial round of software is there to support the launch. Sega comes to mind.

Like the look of the box though. Smaller than I thought.
