Of course.

It's a Slim - as in at some point a large number of PS3's became anorexic. This of course usually leads to things being unnaturally thin and rather disgusting in some cases. You may also notice that some of them decided to dye themselves odd colors as well as having this disorder. So what crowd they started hanging out with I'm still trying to figure out.

So it's perfectly fine to find them disgusting. Those 'Fat fatty mcfatty fat fat' PS3's at least have enough self esteem to still eat healthy and look good enough doing it.

I totally agree that the slim is ugly
I have had my ps3 for 2 years now, and i'm getting very worried about the YLOD. Just can't bring myself to trade it in for the slim.

My PS3 has been working great since I bought it six months ago. Glad to see it finally get some good use...

No need for a slim on my part...

I dunno. As far as I can tell, the Slim looks chic in that modern way that when something looks ugly and cheap enough on purpose, it's socially acceptable and cool. I wouldn't mind one.

Maybe I'm in the minority, but I actually like the PS3 Slim's design better than the PS3 fat (which, I will from this point on be referring to as PS3 classic) - if nothing else for the fact that it blends well into my home theater cabinet.

I mean, sure, it doesn't have the same glossy, space-heater like appearance of the classic, but I'm not complaining...

Arguably, the original PS3 design isn't exactly brilliant, so its pretty hard to make it look worse, hats off to them.

When they said slim, they meant slim as in someone who eats mc donalds twice a week slim instead of every day of the week!

I don't think it's ugly, but I also don't think it looks much better. The Slim doesn't have the magic buttons, so I prefer my classic.

I definitely don't like the look of the slim compared to the original PS3. So far I have been happy with my PS3 so I'm not considering getting a slim anytime soon or possibly ever for that matter.
