Playstation 3? the real truth

Raiden01 · August 27th, 2002

here it is i sent an email to sony the playstation web site and here was there reply....

Dear Mr Knight,

Thank you for your e-mail.

I am afraid at present, we hold no information regarding the highly anticipated 'PS3'. Anything you have heard at this stage is purely speculation and no formal specifications have been set. The 'PS3' would merely resemble 'blueprint' status at this stage and has been clouded by many rumours.

Please keep posted to the official PlayStation web-site (www.uk.playstation.com) for all the latest product developments.

Kind Regards

and here is what i sent them orginally...
Dear Sony
I have recently herd about PS3 (Playstation 3) and i am very excited about
this, but are these just rumours, if not i would realy like to know the
specs please. I have herd it will be 550ghz, if that true thats amazing
becuase today we are only on 2.2ghz. what kind of graphics power will it
have from the chip "CELL", will it play PS ONE and PS2 game aswell as
DVD's and audio cds, is there a design yet? finally will it use Blue Ray
DVDS as well as playing normall DVDs, well i hope yah can help me, hope to
hear from yah soon cheers Raiden

well there it is the truth and facts that are anything else you her about the ps2 is a bunch of crap at this time sorry to burst your bubble but those the truth, here a picture of the ps3 (acording to a fiction webpage) all i can say is where do you put the cd and also here is a webpage for you to be consumed by fiction enjoy

550 GHz. LMFAO.

Anyway, Gamer1, the ASS website looks pretty cool to me, other than their support for the Xbox.

Syed and Decoy, I highly doubt the PS3 will be that size. They wouldn't be able to fit in all the extras they will undoubtedly package in. Besides, it would be a serious heat problem.

WindHydra · August 28th, 2002

not a problem after ten years (probably)

!! all the calculating power in the present world will be available in a single machine in the future....??? :confused: (if the evolution of computers advances exponentially)

On a 1 * 10 ^ -50 micron?
Must be using new tech considering the gate oxide we have in todays cpu's is running away.

There are plans for Organic DNA (yes, deoxyribonucleic acid) based proccessors now. DNA molecules have already been harnessed to perform complex mathematical problems. Leonard Adleman was the scientist to discover this, according to the article I read. Years later this would probably replace our current silicon based proccessors.

K.I.L.E.R · August 28th, 2002

There are also quantum pc's.

If computers are able to do all those functions using silicon, why are blondes so dumb then?

Hanamichi · August 28th, 2002

Quantum technology seems to be closer to becoming the replacement for silicons when compared with DNA chips, but DNA chips will be smaller I think. I'd probably be 30 when any of these chips become common though.
Wait, there are also EUVL chips...

Blondes...what do you mean by blondes being dumb?

edit: And JegNeggy, I didnt want to ask but I can bear it no longer: What exactly does "nyaa" mean?

Quantum computing would be incredibly powerful. Has this even been discovered yet? I kno there is research happening, but I hadn't heard of any significant discoveries (only pseudo-quantum computing). Once quantum computing is discovered, today's computers will look like old TI calculators (the solar powered ones).

And JegNeggy already explained this... "nyaa" is because he's a cat or sumthing like that.

550GHz? is this a new Moore Law kind of thing?
According to this law, we'll see a 550GHz processor in the mid 2015 year, early 2016 year.

Gamer1 · August 28th, 2002

well moore's law has been right so far. technology is 2x better/ faster than the year before it

Phoenix · August 28th, 2002

yes, certainly hadn't failed so far

BTW isn't the Moore's law 2x every 18 months?

Gamer1 · August 28th, 2002

yea. but 1 year is easier to remember. but its really 1.5 year.
