I ask the cheaping out question about 360 all the time...how much cancer is it curing, btw? Way to switch the comparison PCs, though.I am a fanboy of circumstance. Whatever system I own that suits winning the argument best I am the biggest fanboy of temporarily.

Plus, PS3's very visible option in the XMB increased the overall power of the folding project really quickly by getting people to fold that never would have started if it was only on the PC and one had to make a significant effort to go seek out the folding project Yup.

PS3 cancer research contribution divided by cost of all PS3s active is probably STILL much > PC cancer research contribution divided by cost of all PCs active. (though this is because a lot of older PCs are probably used in addition to new buffed PCs)  PCs GPUs  produce .9 petaflops vs the PS3 at 1.3 with less than 20% of the active CPUs.

I wouldn't buy 360 at $200, either (plus $50/year for online gameplay and $80 for wifi and still get no bluray...).

Same here, I would rebuy the PS3 before I would rebuy the Xbox360 because it looks nicer and i'd rather have prettier junk lying around unused than average looking junk.

EDIT: hope my greater than / less than sign is going the right way... hah.
