I have the old fat PS3, but I have to ask, do the new slims and other PS3's no longer support backwards compatibility at all? So you have to have a PS3 and a PS2 to play all the old catalog games? Just curious. That seems rather bad considering how hard they pushed in the beginning about how important backwards compatibility was for the PS3. I too, miss my other OS feature. I am sad they removed it. I liked the idea of being able to install my own OS on the machine, if I so wanted. On topic, I do not own a 3D TV nor do I see any reason to purchase one in the near future. This is not the first time that they have attempted to push 3D on consumers. It failed in the 50's, it failed in the 60's, and I have a feeling that while it won't completely fail now, it won't replace the way we always watch TV and Movies.
