# PS3 eugh!
The controllers are too light, not enough meat to them, that and the limited back catalogue of games.

But Im sure he'll have fun playing it :D

# if you think I'll
let anyone in this house who has ever seen a wii, let alone the toy itself, you would be sadly mistaken.

# PS3s are brilliant.
If you're going to own a console, that's the one to get.

# PS3 is better than sexbox 360
if only for the following reasons: blue ray, wifi, SNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE, it doesn't sound like a helicopter struggling to take off ALL THE TIME.

# The one problem I have with it
is it attracts lots of dust.

# that is does missus
also - Street Fighter isn't as good as I'd hoped it would be.

# reflector or refractor?
I remember having much fun with my birthday telescope :)
It's still at my parents' somewhere

# I'm not sure yet.
I have a 7" meade refractor and a maksutov cassegrain but they are not toys so i want to start him off with something he can handle. A small reflector probably, just to see how interested he gets.

# Sounds reasonable.
That's some nice gear you've got there! I've yet to buy a "grown-up" telescope, but the purchase is delayed by monetary reasons and the fact that I'm living in a city :(

# Will you be annoyed if he ignores the telescope
And starts mindlessly killing stuff on the PS3?

# no. He asked for the telescope.

# oh thats cool. your children are well rounded i geuss.
i find being well-rounded is not economical. so i just play games.

# He's only 9
and has the v+ box set to regularly record the sky at night ;)

# set the PS3 up
at a great distance away... then he can use both presents at the same time!
