  Sony PS3 UK website hints of OS X support on console
    "Sony is expected to offer optional hard drives for the PS3 with potential memory capacity of 80 or 120 GB. It remains to be decided whether the standard version of the PS3 will come complete with a hard drive. The operating system has also yet to be clarified. The integrated Cell processor will be able to support a variety of operating systems (such as Linux or Apple's Tiger)."
    PS3 has a hard drive attachment and using OS X Tiger on PS3 was also hinted at by Kutaragi back in June.
