I got a PS3 Slim now, and personally I prefer it to my old fat one (and not just cause it died on me... I intend to run it over with a car soon and youtube it, so stay tuned!).
For one thing, it has a bigger hardrive, which is always a plus. On top of that, its a lot quieter, install times are faster, and it doesn't actually look all that bad... putting it side to side with the old version, the original PS3 suddenly looks boxed up and square around the corners, while the Slim has sexy curves pretty much everywhere. It definitely grows on you.
Besides, even if it doesn't look as good, the outside look isn't really what matters... Its whats inside the hood that really counts, and the Slim is definitely better there.
OT, I can't help but notice the 360's rather abismal sales continuing in Japan...
the slump was expected really, and the fact that it did really well despite this just goes to show how much of a difference the price drop has made!
