Xbox 360 and PS3: gamers rejoice

**devnull** · 05-17-2005, 11:08 PM

'm actually too old and don't have the extra dough to buy one of these
things but i could certainly understand someone wetting their pants after
reading the specs of these HARDwares.

Xbox 360...

PS3...
http://games.slashdot.org/games/05/05/17/0514254.shtml

when they're released, i sure hope some hacker would take the time to get
these things to play MP4/wmv/divx/xvid videos and not just concentrate
in getting linux running (imagine a beowulf cluster of these)

it has become a sort of a pun on http://slashdot.org.
when there's an article about a piece of hardware hacked to run linux,
someone is bound to post, "imagine a beowulf cluster of these?"
