Linux & PS3

I dont know if this is the right place for this but enyway I have some questions about Linux

1 (POV from someone whos got Linux) Is It worth the 12GB?

2. Can Blender run on Linux, if so Does it run Well ?

3. Anyway to play PC games without an emulator?

4. Can Linux be installed on an External HDD then run on the PS3?

5. If answer to above is no , Can the external HDD be used as a main storage device for Linux. For example to store documents ect. ?

Thats All Folk's any answers would be appreciated

I have Yellow Dog Linux on my ps3 and it works great BUT there are a few problems that include: Wired Connection only UNLESS you use a laptop that is connected to the internet wirelessly and then using a ethernet cord plug it into your ps3 from your laptop. Yes it is worth the 12gb, I would strongly recommend buying a new harddrive for more space because you can't remove linux unless you format your harddrive. Another problem is that it doesn't have flash unless you look around for a tut on how to get it. Anyway to play PC games without an emulator? I don't think so. Can Linux be installed on an External HDD then run on the PS3? Not sure. Hope this helped a little.

1 Yes

2. Yes

3. Yes, you can play several games with wine or you can use the Sun VirtualBox to install Windows within Linux. Some games won't work though the most graphically demanding ones maybe. You can also use emulators like ScumVM to play Lucasarts games or emulators for SNES, Genesis, etc for old games

4. I don't think so

5. I guess so, you can do that on any PC I don't see why it wouldn't be possible on the PS3
