Well, I camped for 36 hours at Walmart and was still only able to get a 20GB. However, I'll just get a nice router and get a bigger HDD, and I'll be set.

To play second rate games that are already on the 360? The PS3 is a good console, but hardly worth paying so much when there are no great games for it. Sony never has good launch titles. I'll buy one next summer when the price goes down and there are actually some games worth playing.

Yep im using it with a SDTV, and using composite to boot (btw, i swear the cable in the box is shoddily made. Very cheap feeling, worse than the one my PS2 came with)

Questions:

2) How well does the PS3 perform watching BD's and lengthy playing games with it mounted Vertically?

Yea, the plastic is going to go. Once I get a shelf for the PS3, I'm going to get one of these (http://images.cableorganizer.com/wiring-solution/wiring-solution.jpg) to hide the wires since we don't want to drill anymore holes.

Those look like crap. If you are going to wall mount your LCD, then wall mount it -- don't half-a$$ it.

With that said, I would recommend wiring an outlet directly behind the television and a coaxial input. That would clean up those wires nicely!
