even if you did, you would likely use it on a tv instead of a computer monitor.
that would be fail

If you would use it as a PC, it would be very low end one. Consoles are meant to be used as consoles.

I can get a cheap LG Flatron .

EDIT : My friend got W7 on his. Same version as mine, works smooth.

DOUBLE EDIT : He got his off a long time ago. Maybe the new ps3 os will slow w7 down?

What I mean is that you won't be able to play latest/new PC games.

Please tell me why exactly it would be a low-end one? I don't get it.

the ps3 is one of the most powerful computers on earth. it wouldn't be "low end"
it would suck because it is only the processing cells that are good.
the video sucks, the memory sucks, the HD sucks.

and you cant just hook a ps3 CPU cell into a PC, it just dont work like that. nor can you put PC hardware into a ps3.

the fact that you have seen things installed on ps3s is because its been hacked recently.
but short of playing burnt ps3 games on it, its not that useful

Because it's not ment for computer gaming.

or what Bisjac said...

mainly because the PS3 does not have a video card, its video+cpu hardware.
a unique thing that cannot just be plugged into other PC's

and on top of that, its video power is meant for 1080p tv
1080p is ass quality for a computer

Would love to use UTorrent to get all PC games.

No piracy...

Yarrrgghh!

If he bought the games separately and then downloaded them, wouldn't it be legal?

@ OP

Yes you should.
Because it's not like the ps3 has games anyways.
