    Albeit running a tad bit slow, Windows XP now unofficially runs on the PlayStation 3 thanks to a few dedicated fans. The popular version of Windows appears to be running in emulation mode in Fedora Core 5, a free distro of Linux.

    Many in our forums and other discussion boards across the web have often joked about this happening, but it is remarkable that Microsoft's operating system is running under Linux so soon after the PS3's launch.

    With this news. it may be only a matter of time before Mac joins the list of operating systems usable on the PlayStation 3. We will keep you updated should any other developments occur.

    Kool, its a shame they dont show my computer properties, ram and cpu etc...
    It will be cool is Keyboard and mouse works properly in it, i think i by the time i get a ps3 and have learnt linux properly and use it very often, and if the ps3 supports keyboard, mouse and sound + graphics etc.., i would actually use the ps3 as my main computer.
