According to Famitsu, the PS3 will not be shipping with a hard drive, but of course it will support one.  The article doesn't say whether or not the HDD will be available at launch or later on.

My source for this is GamesAreFun: http://www.gamesarefun.com/news.php?newsid=5230

I'm sure a big part of this is to keep the already high price down.  If they do release the thing at $399 still though, without a hard drive, that makes the price seem even higher still.  IF, and I stress the IF, Sony does ship it without a hard drive, the price suddenly rises to probably $499 if you want the HDD.  Sucks if you ask me.

I know, I'm working on it. I'm going to try and get a copy of Quest for the Rings with all the parts and the box and stuff off ebay soon. Then I think I'll buy a large lot to get most of the rest.

Sorry this is so off topic, pay no attention to me.
