    I posted this a long time ago on the Gamespot forums, IM not sure how accurate it is but I went by the drives length. All images were resized so that the tray was 250 pixels (before resizing for the internet). http://img286.echo.cx/my.php?image=real4lv.jpg

    Man, the original PS2 is still by far the sexiest of the bunch :p

    With a HDD inserted, it's as high as Xbox.

    Whats interesting about the picture is Xbox has 1.5 GFlops while Playstation 2 has 6.2 Gflops, 6 times the Gflops of Xbox ... interesting EH?

    well at least now we know that apparently PS3 is slightly longer than the X360 (and taller when on end) and slightly more narrow front to back.

    What kind of spelling is this?
























    I kid, I kid!

    If cell turns out to be a disaster than Sony is going to be in a world of hurt.

    Those Gflops are for the CPU alone, AFAIK.

    What are you talking about?
    DigitalSoul suggests EE does geometry so its high GFLOPS rating contributes to GPU work, not CPU. OTOH, RSX does geometry so basically you can't compare EE with Cell. Hey, why not use 'Search' feature, this old topic is so recurrent.

    IIRC it's not been theorized which has better performance yet. If you think it's theorized can you give me the reference that has real figures of the both GPUs?

    The Cell is as much involved in the geometry as RSX is, same case is with Xenon and Xenos except the Xbox architecture is more flexible and enclosed compared to Cell which had to scrap Cell chip 2 which was supposed to do the GPU work and last year went for Nvidia. EE is very comparable to Cell
