Install XP on PS3

Why not?

Like everything else, it is there so why not try it.

Just because you can do it doesn't mean you should. Ask Richard Gere's Gerbil.
In fact visit The Dawin Awards page.

But that site just proves you wrong. People do anything and everything possible because they can. It's human nature. How would we otherwise know that something can kill us unless someone has already been unfortunate enough to die trying?

I think I might die of boredom. I can see the appeal, but it's not for me. I'd prefer to be playing games on my games console (if there were any decent ones for PS3 LOL ZOMG ROFL *JOKE*)

Bwahahaha. Gotta love gratuitous references to that sort of thing.

Can we just grab the HD from someone that allready have XP in PS3 and copy the full HD? The hardware is the same (ps3) so it should work.... or not?

The problem is to find that HD...

[Harrison]

I would suspect each PS3 formats the HD so it will only work with that PS3. Is that right?

[Tiago]

Does the MBoard/CPU knows if the HD was previously formated? I guess is like a PC, it doens't know.

So if you change the HD, just like a PC, it should work with the new SO, or whatever is inside the HD. You only need (?) to setup the HD, like in PC BIOS. ??

In PC if you replace the HD with other SO prepared for a different hardware, the SO will work anyway, it could have some problems/conpatibilities with the new hardware, but it will work...
In PS3 the hardware is allways the same ... only the size of HD is different... so it should work... (?)
