Yea, Sony is borrowing one of ASUS' factories in Taiwan to manufacture some PS3s. Probably the motherboard component with the Cell Chip being manufactured by IBM.

Along with 360 as they're only selling 1000 360s in Japan a week, vs. 125k PS2s sold a week.

I think PS3 is going to create a great hit.

*can someone tell me what FTW means?

Djembe · 07-19-2006, 09:52 PM

FTW is an abbreviation and means For The Win, which is e-speak signifying support for a particular person, place, or thing

I know i heard that Asus was making the PS3's and it just made me want to get one even more. I cannot wait till they are released, i just got myself an HDTV for the anticipated launch. (well not really, it was a good deal, and i love local HD channels).
