Hey everyone. Jeffrey Powers from Geekazine here. Check out my newest podcast – Day in Tech History

This week I have put together this show in a different way. It is recorded 100% from the iPhone. Some of it was with the headset, some without and one part was even from my podcast rig recorded to the iPhone.

The idea is simple: If you say you don’t have time to do a podcast, then I am showing you otherwise. Toward the end I put up a challenge to everyone that has been saying they wanted to do a podcast.

Some items you can get to help record shows

Monster iSoniTalk
Logitech LIC-iREC03P (Which for some reason is not on Logitech site)
Quicktime

Show Notes:

• Building a PC equivalent to a PS3
• Assumptions:
  • PC has to run out of the box so OS is a must
  • This will be connected to a TV/LCD which means HDMI video/audio is a must
  • PC has to run games as fast/good as a PS3 if not better
  • PC must play BD movies flawlessly
  • Performance will be judged based on PS3 game resolution chart by Quaz found here at Beyond3D
  • Frames per second isn’t recorded in PS3 benchmarks but we will assume that PC games has to run between 35-45 FPS to look as good as PS3
  • We will be using Canadian price of $499.99 for the PS3 and not the US price of $499.99
  • All parts will be purchased from one store to save on shipping and simplicity
• Full Build: http://bit.ly/PS3PC
• Final Price at time of recording: $556 CDN
• PC/PS3 pros and cons
• Bottom line: It’s possible with a bit of leg work to get the price down
• You can shave the cost of OS down by getting the Windows 7 RC that’s free from Microsoft until March 2010
