Who Cares About Linux on the PS3?

[ Thanks to Jim Lynch for this link. ]

"I also don't own a PS3 and I have no intention of buying one. But if I did own one, I'd use it for games and Blu-ray discs. That's it. Why on earth would I want to run Linux on such a limited machine?

"I could build my own computer with truly kick ass components and enjoy Linux far more than with Sony's already aging and relatively puny videogame console. And I could easily swap out older components for newer components, thus making a DIY box last far longer than a silly videogame console."
