FireWire 800 = 800 mega BITS per second, 8 bits ber byte, so divide by 8 = 100 mega BYTES per second?

Sounds fast enough to me I guess.

That USB connection, in and of itself, is really going to slow you down. try to find firewire

You'll find a few here:

I even found one that has 1TB HD. :)

Well, you mean a FireWire 800 drive, since USB 2.0 is 80Mbits faster than FireWire.

BIG difference in price. 

I watched the 9 minute preview of Ratatouille and was not impressed with the story much. The animation looks fantastic, but we'll see about the story.

Cars wasn't that great of a story either.

My favs from Pixar are Monsters Inc and The Incredibles.

I am going to buy the next iteration of Core 2 Duo iMac and want to run Vista, but really want it on a seperate drive.

Is this going to be too slow or what?

Thanks!

:D 

Inless I had millions in the bank I wouldnt even bother with a PS3. Its not that its a bad system, its that I dont have enough time to play the games on the 360, let alone once I have a Wii also. Also $600 is still a good amount of money.

 now what? did I win lotto? lol

 i have these funny little things called "education" and "job" that allow me to have other little things called "house" and "car" and "toys".

I feel even more sorry for those who have to bash other consoles to make them feel better about thier choice.

Ready for the TRUTH part? Here it goes:

ALL 3 consoles are wroth it. All 3 consoles have advantages and disadvantages.  And you know for a fact in your heart that once this gen matures a bot EVERY CONSOLE with have advantages making it worth owning.

More truth: If you can only have one console right now, it's the 360. I can't even see how you can argue that. Gaming is about games right? The 360 has the most quality titles right now. It's not even debatable.  Too bad it'll probably melt down in the middle of your favorite game. lol

 OMG, I just owned this whole board! YAY 4 ME!
