I bought my PS3 when it was first released. Sony actually lost money on my sale. You win.

The integrated BluRay was a big part of the decision. It was the 'other' thing I was looking to buy at the time and I got both for the combined price and only had to talk my wife into one purchase instead of two. It also played SACDs back then, which was something else I had an urge to experiment with.
The premature Xbox deaths were also at their worst around that time but it was the BR and SACD that really moved it to the PS3 for me. For gaming, I had no preference back then, as long as it played Rock Band.

Murph. It sounds like you and I went through the same decision process. I needed wanted a bluray player. I was curious about SACD. My son wanted 3 games that were on the PS3 and not the Wii. I held my nose and bought the best player. At that time, Sony was about the only one offering substantive software updates to keep the PS3 current as well. Say, maybe we should start a PS3 thread where the boys can talk about this here red ray player.

Naively, I once thought that my work and interests would basically ensure that technology didn't "pass me by" in my lifetime.
I'm over that now. I not only can't keep up, I'm not sure if I want to.

I've still the same comments to make, uhhh, just in case anyone was interested. But, a 4k projector sure would be sweet! Perhaps, if I stood on a street corner in old clothing holding a sign, that said "Hungry for new 4K projector. Anything would be appreciated. God Bless! Note: fifty's and hundreds garners greater blessings"

I'm over that now. I not only can't keep up, I'm not sure if I want to. Ever since we got a higher bed, this is what my dog has concluded.

Not to worry. We put a little bench at the foot of the bed and now she climbs up when she gets too cold in her bed on the floor.
Now, back to the thread topic....
I got nothing.
