Yup, it was me who asked about it :-)

The PS3 fits my needs fine at the moment, long term I'm probably going 
to build a dedicated media PC running MythTV, but for now the PS3 works 
great for games, Bluray movies and streaming media from PS3 Media 
Server.  I was a bit disappointed with Linux but that wasn't the sole 
reason I got it (plus it was £50 cheaper than the Slimline console which 
meant I could get an extra couple of games for the kids).
