There is no competition between PS2 and the XBOX. PS1/2 has something like a few hundred millions units sold compared to a few hundred thousand.
That's stupid to think PS2 has to run linux to compete, but, oh well, whatever floats your boat.
Mankind have a great aversion to intellectual labor; but even supposing knowledge to be easily attainable, more people would be content to be ignorant than would take even a little trouble to acquire it.

theres more to this...................
Aside form the peope that already have ps2. Think about it man what if you did not have a computer of your own and you like consoles and you also wanted to play all the newest games and wanted the best of both worlds.
(ps2)$300 + (Linux & hardware) $300 = $600
Better then a computer that is worth $600...
Are you telling me you are not interested at all about this not even alittle bit????????
If your friend got it would you go over his house and mess around with it???

Not better than a PC worth 600, not at all. you have much more capability in a PC than a console. For instance, On a cheap-o PC you can run all the N64, playstation, etc.etc. games you want. Can't say that for any one of those consoles.
I still think it's a dopey idea. Sorry.
