Is there anything stopping a PC login into Home?

Basically is this a service that only the PS3 can access or is a PC capable although its not meant to be I presume?

The fact that you can't download/install Home onto a PC may be what will stop a PC from logging into Home

It's a PS3 exclusive feature.

No don't. I checked out Second Life and it has to be the most pathetic game I've ever played. Steer clear unless you're interested in pixel porn.

How much memory would home take on the Hard Disk Drive?

It should take about 500mb primarily, but given updates and the stuff, and recent additions, I'm going to go and say that it'll probably be about a gig in size, most likely less than that though. But it wont be more than a gig from the sounds of previous announcements.

It is not a website. It needs to be downloaded and installed.

Isn't anyone going to say that a hacker can try and break his way in? It is online!

It's not possible to hack it unless you hack the PS3's OS and somehow gain access to Home... which is very hard to do as far as I know...

It is not a website FFS! It needs to be downloaded and installed! It's the same as saying "can you play PS3 games on a PC"?

But to download something it needs to be online. Also the fact it is PS3 OS doesn't protect it because people can eventually create emulators.

Yes but they can't transfer Home from the PS3 onto a PC to be able to use it, and even then in this day and age, how many PS2 Emulators are there let alone a PS3 emulator.

There is no way to get Home onto a Harddrive. If you know how, please do tell. In fact, can you tell us how to get a downloaded game from the PSN onto a PC? (NON PSP-compatible game that is) It's not possible.

Ask a Military programmer of the underground. I'm sure he'll be able to tell you for a few hundred million dollars.

Otherwise give me 20-30 years and I'm sure I'll have been in the industry long enough by then.
