I wouldn't buy THAT laptop over a PS3. I just got one with twice the specs at Best Buy for $50 less than that one. You could find a much better deal if you shop around more.

So it seems safe to say that the consensus is that, for the money, a new PC or laptop (of one's choosing) is a better value than a PS3.

Now if only the buying public can get the same perspective...
