every piece of hardware that has ever been created has had a chance of failure, even the PS3. however, the problems are nothing like the RROD of the 360. Go for it, not many PS3's have broken down.
Every device is safe if you take care of it. The safest is the 60GB Normal Version, Take good care of it and all is good. Ps3 Is significantly less vulnerably for hardware failure then Xbox360. Been using my for a year no problems So far, Just dust it now and then and it won't even overheat.
I personally have 3 PS3's. Family, Cousin and Myself. I have original 60GB, newer 40GB and PS3 Slim in excellent working conditions. Take care of the system and your money are well spent.
I got my PS3 in 2007, I actually got it from Best Buy with a warranty. I didnt take care of it, I let it get dusty and I actually got dust inside the machince. It wouldnt read disk, but with the warranty I got a brand new one. Other than me being a dumbass, I have not had any problems. I just recomment the warranty just in case. Plus do you really want to play the 360 with all the glitches that have been coming out. You cant even play modern warfare 2 or boarderlands online anymore with out something crazy going on.
I was planning to buy a ps3 in march. So is ps3 has any problems like xbox had? Is it safe?

Well you might not want to leave your lunch around it because if you get one of the older systems they're all fat so they might eat your meal. The newer PS3's are all slim so that they're starving so they'll eat your meal. Either way your lunch isn't safe.
Yeah you won't be getting and red rings or anything there were a few issues with the 60GB this year but the Slims are fine, I have the 40Gb now a 500Gb and Ive never had a problem
There pretty reliable. My launch title 60 gb died in december. And that was because i turned it off by hitting the power supply switch (yes i know that was a dumb ass move) but it ran like a champ for 3 years.
get a slim. it's got a 45nm cell instead of the 65nm core that the xbox has. even tho the latest gen xbox has a lot less problems (i went through 3), it still runs a lot hotter than my ps3 slim
^^^ahh damn it i was going to go for a condom joke..
But seriously most electrical appliances fail because they overheat and the slim runs even cooler than its predecessor which didn't have any heating problems to start with, just keep it clean and in a reasonably ventilated area and you should be fine
