You're not missing out much. It only has 256mb ram and the video chip is locked, so you can only run 2D programs in linux. Another sad thing is that there is no flash plugin for the PS3 chip, so no youtube or Facebook apps/games.

A sub $200 Atom setup for linux will run circles around a PS3 for general web browsing and you will save money on your hydro bill.
