    [click image to enlarge]The above picture comes from Sony's "Safety and Support" manual and details replacement of the system's HDD and SIXAXIS controller's battery. Sony has said that when the battery is dead, they'll hook us up with a new one, but the manual shows one how to remove the battery before disposing of the dead controller. Reverse those directions and you have yourself a SIXAXIS that's ready to get back into the trenches.Even better though, is the directions on how to replace your HDD without voiding warranty! So, if the 60GB HDD isn't cutting the mustard for you, follow the steps in the pictures below and slap a 200GB behemoth into that sucker!

    Our sister blog Joystiq recently took it upon themselves to don the cap and tobacco pipe of one Sherlock Holmes, traversing the vast series of tubes that make up the internet to answer the most important question in the universe. And before we go any further, no you don't need a crazy super computer to provide us with the answer, which is not "42." After giving up their search, they found that a Japanese blogger had already done all of the work for them. Hooray for us!Analyzing results from four of the largest social sites on the internet, the overall compilation of numbers results in the Wii kicking the PS3's ass up and down each tiny tube that together form a vast assembly of tubes that form an even vaster internet. Yes, we have a hard time letting a joke die (we're all for joke life support).[Via Joystiq]
