I recently installed the Linux kit for PS2, It's fun to use. The monitor part is tricky though. I had to get an special adapter to make it work with my Flat Screen monitor (check the FAQ at Playstation2-linux.com). GNU Step works like a charm. Gnome is slow (although the kit doesn't come with the latest gnome release). Well I'm not planning in developing games for PS2 yet. I just would like to install Linux on any device that comes to my hands. Until now: a PS2, a Psion 5mx and an iPAQ. Why? It just keeps my Linux knowledge sharp (I have 8 Linux servers at my company, but they never fail, so I only do maintenance and monitoring on those).
