Cool PS3 60's @ PC World



I have just added another new toy to my Onkyo.

If you search and reserve online PC World have 60gig PS3's available. Go through the reserve process and it then searches for stores with stock. My local Medway branch said they had 20 or so but are only giving them to pre reserved customers.

Anyway, plugged it in, even the setup process makes the old xbox 360 look lame .... currently waiting for software update to finish.

Completed the upgrade, connected to the net, configured the media server, signed up to FREE online game id, read the online manual to help with set up and sorted out the dvd upscaling and bitstreamed the audio to the Onkyo 905.

Stuck in Casino Royal SDef, amazing difference from the old dvd player, I recon the quality rivals SkyHD. Need to go and buy some bluray discs now.

And I even had a bit of time to play a game!

Lovely bit of kit.
