A Success for a change
Just thought I would share this as I was amazed it all worked out of the
box. Just bought a PS3. Switched it on, configured to my wireless network and it picked up both my desktop and laptop straightaway (both Vista). Opened Media Player 11 on both systems and had a look at the Media Sharing. PS3 was ther, gave permission and went back to the PS3. Audio and video streamed no problem. Very pleased.

Tiberius, I don't want to get into a "my OS is better than yours". The reason for my comment is that I have had a few networking problems with Vista. I run MS products around my house for the benefit of the rest of my family and the uses they put computers to. For my part I have run SuSe since the 7 series and have thoroughly enjoyed the tinkering with the source code, and for my part it does provide a practical desktop alternative. However, wireless support is still not quite there and that is essential in my home environment. Each OS, be it Linux, OS X or Windows has its own place and purpose in my book.
