Hey guys.

I just noticed that operative systems can be installed on PS3, so I came with a strait-forward easy- to- respond question:

By using Windows OS, can you actually install PC games on the PS3, and you know, use the hardware advantages to play them on maximum settings?

You can install (a PS3 specific) Linux on PS3, not PC designed OS.

There's 2 problems with PC games on PS3, which makes playing PC games on PS3 impossible; different hardware (PPC on PS3 and x86 on PC) and lack of RAM (256 on PS3 and gigabytes on PC). What i've heard, is that the PS3 Ubuntu works slow on PS3, not to mention if you tried to run games with it (not to mention what would happen with high settings). But the flash games (with old enough flash) should work.
