I see no reason why not

Same console, just improvements in design, and power management. Still features the same features such as Blu-ray and a very fast CPU. All we need now is a PS3 with a few ATI gpu's in it

according to the guys at work, Sony have disabled the ability to boot linux, so unless they've added boinc support to the desktop (like folding@home) it won't boinc

Is it still a blu-ray player, John?

I ask because it's the only reason Our Lass is buying me one for Xmas!

I've no idea mate but I'd guess it still has blu-ray

Yep it still has blu-ray as that is what the PS3 games are designed for. :D
