Yup it is real and took me all day.  Got Qemu built, installed, and running in YDL and installed Windows 2000 Pro into a virtual machine then installed Wizardry Gold in Windows 2000 Pro. Complete with Soundblaster 16 sound.  Used the Gimp in YDL to grab the screens.  At any rate another milestone for the PS3! The YDL desktop is 50 inch HDTV so W2K is like about a 30 inch HD  window??  Who said the PS3 was boring...

People always say this but I'm sure your PC is not connected to your Living Room TV.

What would you do on Windows 2000 that would be worthwhile in your living room?

true, but most people have wireless laptops...
 
i know i do, and soon enough my desktop will be right next to my PS3...
 
i mean Windows 2000...? whoopee doo...
 
personally i'd keep anything with a MS logo as far away from the insides of my PS3 as possible...
Kudos!
