We're good consumers
We just bought Rock Band for PS3. We don't even have a PS3 yet, but were just so amazed that they actually had a copy, given that it's sold out most places, and is being sold on craigslist and eBay at ridiculous markups.
Now I have to get a PS3... I've been trying to find a 60 GB model, but it's not easy to get one for a reasonable price that also still has a decent warrany left on it. I know they're better made than some consoles I could name, but I'd still like to have more than 30 days on the warrany (which is all you get with a refurbished model). If it takes too long I'll just give in and get an 80 GB--there aren't *too* many games that wouldn't work well with it that I actually might care about playing, and since it uses software emulation now there will probably continue to be updates to it, at least for a little while longer.
