    Thousands of PS3 units hit eBay
    11.27.06 (12:46 pm)

    If you didn't camp out for the Sony PlayStation 3, you weren't likely to land one Friday. Well, unless you could put down plenty of cash to snag one from thousands that immediately went on sale online for three to four times the system's retail price.

    The basic 20-gigabyte game console retails for $499; the more popular 60-gigabyte version sells for $599 at stores. However, one unit was going for $10,100 on eBay. Many were listed at $1,500 to $2,500.

    Such stores as Toys "R" Us, Best Buy and Fry's Electronics sold out within minutes. Several retailers pre-sold systems, and some didn't get as many as expected, angering some customers. advertisement 
     
    Retailers contacted couldn't say when they expect to get more units. Sony promised to ship 400,000 PS3 units for the U.S. launch Friday and 1million units by the end of the year. Sony had expected 2 million units for sale this year.

    The scarcity of the game system led some diehard buyers to stand in line two and three days in advance.

    The www and Your Google Pagerank
    by Genia V. Stevens
    I sold a text link to one of my advertising clients on TheAuctionBoard's main page. My auction ad stated that my website's main page had a Google pagerank (PR) of 6. After the client was informed that his link had been placed, he visited my website to verify the placement, and responded with this:

    When looking at your website it is showing me a 0 PR. Can you explain this or clarify the error?
