To this day, almost a decade later, there still isn't a console that is as feature-packed, even if you count the removal of linux support.
>>
>>54334677
I still have 2 unopened MX518's. I've been using my existing MX518 for about 5 years, and it's still going strong. Hardware redundancy, albeit semi autistic, has served me right for many years of not having to get to know new peripherals or running the gauntlet of shenanigans to find a new peripheral that just works and feels right.
>>
>>54334981
Nah. Replaced mine 3 times. I have the slimmer matte version now but I never use it.
>>
>>54334677
did they just discontinue them without a real alternative?
>>
>>54335032
I purchased on on ebay "as is" for 30 bucks about 2 months after they dropped, and then paid 100 bucks to get it reballed, and 100 bucks for a 320GB hard drive (the largest reasonably priced 2.5 SATA drive in 2007). Haven't had a problem since, although I'm sure the HDD will need to be replaced eventually (I've got a portable that backs up the PS3, so no biggie).

Not bad for a system that cost $600 when it dropped. It's also the closest a console has ever come to being an actual PC, with 4 USB ports, a CF card reader, a memory pro duo card reader, an SD card reader, as well as pretty much full BC with all the older games, and the ability to play/rip CDs, play DVD's and Blu Rays, and having an up-gradable hard drive.

Since the PSP 3000, they've really cut back their user friendliness. PS4 and the Vita are absolute proof of this.

They replaced them with the G400. But I think that's discontinued too. I don't know if they replaced it because I've been using the same G400 for five years :^)

It looks simple, but it is still one beast of a sound bar system. 3 HDMI inputs, 3 optical inputs, one analog input, one DM port (for iDevices), and one digital coax input, all routing to an HDMI output. If you can find them, they are under 100 bucks now, despite taking 7.1 PCM like its nothing.

50 watts per speaker, and 100 watts to the sub. Hard to do better for less than 100 bucks.

Here's a pic of the back.

If you read the CNET reviews for the 100 and the 150, its pretty funny. On the 100, they bitched that the remote input was on the sound bar, and not the subwoofer. On the 150, Sony put it on the subwoofer, not the sound bar, and then they bitched about THAT. No pleasing some people.

Implying Shenmue isn't one of the greatest games ever made.
