NVIDIA GPU resurrected after 10 minutes at 425°F {Engadget}

May 31st 2009 1:35AM Reflow temp for lead free solder is quite high. I hate working with it and it's just not as pretty as a standard leaded solder/paste. Putting your video card, or any electronics, in your kitchen oven is something you should NOT do.

Of course it's a copy/paste but, they're the same reasons I never bought a PS3 and probably never will. The modded xbox is a novelty and nerd-tastic but to pay over $250 for an old xbox with a hack? Fools and their money...

Dec 14th 2008 11:47AM So why is the PS3 flopping so badly?

1. It's the most expensive console on the market, $150 - $200 more than its rivals. Even if you believe the video game industry is "recession-proof" (it isn't), a tanking economy makes consumers more price-conscious.
2. The PS3's big bonus is its ability to double as a Blu-Ray player. Too bad no one seems to care about hi-def DVDs. The differences between Blu-Ray and DVD are hard to see on a TV less than 50".
3. The PS3 just doesn't have any must-have titles exclusive to the console. "LittleBigPlanet" has generated decent buzz but isn't a game-changer, and neither is Sony's new virtual world "Home."
