I did the install of OpenSUSE 11.1 and it went just like the intel PC
install. I have not had lots of time to pay with it yet, It seems that
the 225 MB of RAM that the PS3 has will be the issue. I have to set up
a lean desktop. No KDE/GNOME here! Otherwise, it seems that Sony have
contributed Linux drivers for the display (using a 1080p TV) and the
network hardware. I hope the web browsing will be better than with the
PS3 browser.

It is like talking about large city with all constructions finished.
Not impossible, but very unlikely.
