There's a difference between the two? That's odd. Anyways my 60GB gets hot under the right side but I'm pretty sure thats normal. I've played for many hours on end without wrecking it so..

no!. i have 40gb ps3 and its excellent it dosnt get hot after playing 6-7 hours endlessly because there is less load on 40gb. the size of 40gb ps3 and 60gb ps3 is the same. 60gb has a hardware or a software component for playing games of ps2 and 40 gb dosnt have that so it has large space of ventilation to get. But 60 gb has all of the stuff within the same space therefore less space of ventilation. (I asked the same question from the sony Manager he told me this)

so what your saying is the 40GB has exactly the same PS3 hardware as the 60GB, minus the PS2 hardware? so no graphical differentials PS3-wise. is this correct?

thanks.
