Would be nice if it hashed decently. Plenty of PS3's that are sitting unused most of the time.
Also personally I'd like to see it because of what Sony is doing about Geohot and the hacking.
It's BS that you were supposed to originally be able to run Linux and Sony took it away.
Might work out well though, a lot of PS3 users want to help out Geohot with donations.
If he accepts BTC and they generate it on their PS3's it could work out well for everyone involved.
Bitcoin could get a lot of publicity from this and Geohot could get a lot of donations he wouldn't have.
