I hate idiots..

I've been looking up how to install World of Warcraft with Yellow Dog Linux (Or any other OS that would work on PS3) and theres a few threads of someone asking if it's possible and how. Almost all of these threads end with some idiot saying "Why would you want to play World of Warcraft with a controller, thats dumb blah blah blah."

Are people ignorant enough to not know that there are USB slots for more than charging controllers and playing Guitar Hero? Plug a **** keyboard / mouse.

I still haven't found out if it's possible. Anyone a genius, and knows the answer?

Uhm, I'll have a quick scan on the internet, but my guess is that you can't and even if you could it might not be fully compatible.. its like using your ps3 as a PC and playing games like the Sims off of it. I would've probably heard if it was possible.

EDIT: Okay, seems you can play SOME games (http://boardsus.playstation.com/playstation/board/message?board.id=ps3&thread.id=1451108&view=by_date_ascending&page=2) but not all, and theres issues with RAM and something about a hypervisor chip.

Right I heard that linux can run it but the PS3 cant because of the RAM.

You can't cause of RAM issues

I'm sure you CAN play WoW with the 256mb of RAM, just at lowest settings..

Its not just the ram. from what ive read around the net, Im 90% certain it's unplayable.. if you really wanna try it though, tell us how it turns out.
