True. But I think John was looking at the cost issue
and easy availability.
The Sony PS3 can be obtained for <=$399 USD and you
get a nice Blu-ray player tossed in for free. The
'free' Blu-Ray player and Nvidia RSX GPU are more than
worth the price of admission here in the long term and
as a feasible solution. Both the old and new Mac Mini
runs about $499 USD and has far less capabilities in
key areas.
FOSS developers are already familar with the PS3 and
it is available and supported worldwide (where
allowed).
It is not hard to see a potential business case for
this initiative. Checkmate??
