actually:
sony stated in a recent court case "the ps2 isnt a dvd player, although it does have a dvd-rom"
hmmmm, interesting...
That's because Sony tried to get the PS2 classified as a PC in Europe. This was a financial rather than technological move - PCs have lower tariffs and so if the PS2 was a PC then Sony could claim millions in rebates.
