Yeah, but I was just thinking...man, I'd have to boot into linux every
time I wanted to do MP3s.  Instant gratification is my thing...push the
"MD/TAPE" button on my audio system, and *bam* there it is.  No waiting
for the system to boot.

I may alter that, though, if the PS2 linux system boots relatively
quickly.

I do wonder what kind of neat software I could port to the PS2 and have it
take advantage of the twin 300 Mhz vector engines.
