if its in a well ventilated area its a good thing it means that the heat is moving away from your PS3.

otherwise i wouldnt worry too much

Its a good thing as long as the air around the ps3 is not too cold.

Most likely a good thing, but my PS3 is always pretty hot even after just an hour or so. And this is the first I've heard of "the yellow light." I'm guessing it's the PS3 version of the Red Ring of Death?

Never heard of a PS3 getting ice cold. But it must be a good thing because that means there's alot of ventilation in that area.

Seems like people are getting edgy about their PS3's, a bit twitchy, wondering if it's going to die on them. Recent threads about hot or cold consoles and too loud or not loud enough noises. A RRo-like paranoia is setting in. By the way, this is a joke fanboys.

It shouldn't be a problem for your PS3. Overheating is usually the problem.

"PS3 as cold as ice. Someday you'll pay the price, I know. I've seen it before, it happens all the time." Your actually lucky. Mine gets fire hot; hot enough that it sometimes causes games to freeze. Not that this is ab-normal because every system I have owned does this after a while. If your game freezes (no pun intended) than that may be a problem.
