At first i was all about the xbox 360 and thats all i have right now. But this PS3 slim really caught my attention and sounds too good to be true. 120 gigs, blu ray player, wireless support all for $299! I heard it doesnt have backwards compatibility and Linux support. Can someone explain to me what that is? Thanks in advance

Welcome to Gamespot,

Linux support on the phat PS3 ment you can run linux OS on the PS3 and use linux as it were on a regular computer.

No, it's an entire operating system, like Windows, just a different flavor

Unless you are a computer nerd, this is basically a non-issue.

And of course it comes with a dual shock 3
