PC + PS3 setup? Any benefits?

Howdy, I'm fairly new around here and wasnt sure if this should go in the PC or PS3 forums...

Anywho, I'm going to be getting a new laptop or PC after the windows 7 launch. My question is if there are any specific benefits to having a PC + PS3 set up in my living room? The PS3 seems to be able to handle everything i've thrown at it so far in terms of web, photos, music, gaming... so what, if any, benefit would hooking up a PC to my PS3 offer?

Basically, I have been a Nintendo-phile my whole entire 31 years on this planet, and just got a PS3 two weeks ago as my first non-nintendo console ever... and i love it. It is the best non-car or vacation purchase I've ever made. And now I'm trying to resist the urges to go all sony (tv, vaio, etc).

Thanks peeps, and I'm glad to have found gamespot!

Install TVersity on your PC and then you can stream pretty much any video format over your network onto your PS3.

I'll look into that as soon as I get home. Good call.
