From what I've read, PS3s actually like cloths - though it depends on what colour....as darker colours absorb the heat more than lighter colours.

I cant really see it doing the PS3 any harm, the PS3 may have taken a little longer to cool down but I doubt it would have done any damage.

Darker colours absorb more sunlight, lighter colours reflect sunlight, it does not matter what colour cloth you put on a ps3 after use as they will all keep it warm and dust free.

No es bueno poner mantas (eso es lo que me ha traducido el traductor de Google)encima de la PS3,y encima después de apagarla. No la dejarás respirar ni que se disipe el calor. Tendrás que ponerla en un lugar ventilado.

Vale,tío,no te pongas así. Es que estaba mirando por todos los foros en distintos idiomas usando el traductor. Además es que ahora mismo en el foro español hay poca actividad.
