There have been scattered reports that many PS2 games aren't working properly with the PlayStation 3 in Japan, but firmware updates are being produced to alleviate these issues. Ultimately Sony's goal is 100% backwards compatibility, although we haven't yet seen a running compatibility list.

Sony has promised backwards compatibility with PS2 games, but now there is talk that the emulation required to pull this off might not be ready for launch. It's also unknown if all PS2 games will be playable on the PS3 if the do pull off this backwards compatibility. See similar questions...

Yes, though you won’t be able to use your old controllers, memory cards, or other peripherals. The PS3 will upscale the PSOne and PS2 games’ video to HD resolutions, should you choose. See similar questions...

I imagine that most devices use simple bilinear filtering to upscale an image. The downside of this is softer edges. I think I’ve seen descriptions of algorithms that attempt to find hard edges in the source material and to preserve them after upscaling.

Although Microsoft has developed a habit of not including new features, Windows XP SP1 was an exception to that rule. It included support for USB 2.0 and included a nifty, government-required tool that will let you hide MS products, if you want. It also included support for other version of Windows, like Media Center and Windows Powered Smart Displays editions (codenames Freestyle and Mira, respectively). Windows XP SP1 also includes bug fixes and other general improvements. See similar questions...

Yes. The MD format stores data like hard-disk or floppy-disk drives in computers. The TOC contains a list of starting/ending positions and names for each track, like the directory in computers. Tracks can be erased, divided, combined, moved [or just ''swapped'' on some early models] and named like the files in computers. For example, after recording 11 5-minute tracks on a 60-minute MD, 55 minutes are used and 5 minutes remain. See similar questions...

Google has released its Web browser toolbar with three advanced features essential for using USA4SALE classifieds websites.

All home games are played at either Beverly Hills Park or El Franco Lee Park. Typically teddy bear teams are played at home but sometimes we partnership with an adjacent club and play games there. Older players play about 1/2 of the games at a home field and the remaining games at other clubs. Normally the travel time is 15 to 20 minutes or less. The farthest clubs are Galveston, Baytown and Crosby but it is unlikely you will travel that far. See similar questions...

The terminal's "magnify" feature enlarges the text for improved visibility by the voter. See similar questions...

Hormel Foods would be happier if everyone called junk email "UCE" (for Unsolicited Commercial Email), but is quite reasonable about the words "spam", "spammer", "spamming", etc. (The SPAM on your grocer's shelves is spelled with all capital letters; Hormel wants folks to use lower case letters for the bad kind.)
