How to take care of PS3?
Sell it and get an XboX360.
There, I admit it, I want a MS box too!! But I'm stuck with this Sony thing.

woah what??? How? I don't see a mem card slot anywhere. It creates virtual memory cards on the hard drive, but I don't see a place to connect an actual memory card...

On the Gen1 PS3's, flip open the left side next to the disc slot.
Gaze in awe at built-in memory readers.
Note: you're still stuck buying USB adapters for physical PS/PS2 memory cards.

Aren't like 80% of YLOD due to ventilation issues inside the unit due to dust which ticks off a highly sensitive heat sensor?
One thing people haven't mentioned...
You will most likely have spare USB slots. Go out and buy a laptop cooler and put one underneath your PS3. My slim gets warm sometimes too (After abour 5-6 hours of playing) and the vent comes out the back. The reason why I put it there was to keep the airflow good so that that heat exhaust doesn't fubar up my laser sound cable.
