I am happy I don't own PS3 since it kill power bill.
The blog entry wasn't just about the PS3. It was about how it should be mandated for video devices including DVD players, Blu-ray players, DVR, HDTV receivers, portable DVD players with LCD screens and more to include CC decoders.

About the Mac Mini, does it support HDCP? (High Definition Content Protection) I haven't checked if it does. It's important that it is in order to play Blu-ray movies in 1080p.

The PS3 consumes roughly the same power as a desktop PC. My PowerMac G4 basically heat up the whole room during the winter which is a nice plus. I have to say that my PS3 is super-super quiet. Even the Wii makes more noise. I'm not going to lie about PS3... it's quite a great machine which is extremely well-designed as far I am concerned.
