Got Oblivious Collector's Edition for the XBox 360 (now my 2nd
Windows system, next to the original XBox) the day it came out.  I
only got to veg about 15 hours 10 days later, but have been so busy
since that I haven't had any time to play it.

Normally Bethesda has been a MS-only (PC, Xbox, PocketPC phones)
label -- including for their previous Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind. 
So I wonder if it's because of the vector processing units in the PS3
that is why they are porting?  It would be cool to see what kind of
improvements they do.

Right now the 720p rendering is most excellent on my 26" LCD TV --
sans distance viewing (e.g., from a mountain top).  So there is room
for improvement.
