Take a look.

 Linux for PlayStation 2

Seems like Video Game console systems are going to become more like PCs.

If a customer wants a PC-like system, get a PC.
So, the Xbox has broadband, meaning they'll have download patches and updates for games. The poor consolers think its a boon, but oh, they're so wrong.
