1 FLOPS (not 'flop' as many people say) means the computer can do one floating point operation in a second.
megaflops = 1mil gigaflops = 1bil teraflops = 1 tril FLOPS are not really the greatest way to judge how fast a computer/game machine will be in regular use, as things like memory bandwidth, cache size, and path design will probably play bigger roles. but if you're looking for raw computational power on scientific stuff FLOPS still play a good part. it's a cute benchmark but not a realistic one.

I guess I'd better save up $500 for when this thing comes out. It looks amazing as far as a console is concerned. I also like how it is being released in North America first... then Europe, then Japan. Just a little change from the norm $$$. Hopefully "Need For Speed: Most Wanted" doesn't suck either haha.

Wireless controlers comming standard is a bad idea. It means all of the controllers will need batteries, and that as the batteries die the infra-red signal will weaken and the effectiveness of the controler will decline ("no man, I TOTALLY pushed jump! This is bullshit!") My friend has a PS2 wireless controller and its basically worse than useless.

* Found at the top of controller is the 'Charge Port,' where the 'Play-Charge' recharging cable is connected I'm assuming this bulky battery pack at the bottom is good for long hours of gaming.
