    I have got two of these complete PAL Linux kits, so I have decided to sell one of them. The kit is in great condition and everything is working fine.
    I don't know exactly how many of these kits where manufactured, but a complete Linux kit is a lot harder to find than a debugging unit.
    Non of the items have their original box. The price is £150 + shipping.
    This sale includes:

    Official PS2 keyboard.
    Official PS2 Mouse.
    Official PS2 hard drive.
    Official PS2 VGA cable.
    2x Officail PS2 memory cards, one for Linux and the other for McBoot.
    PS2 Linux 1.0, both discs and instruction manual.
    PS2 Network adapter.
    PS2 Network access disc.
    PS2 console SCPH-30003.
    Official PS2 dualshock controller.
    AV cable and power supply.

    Can you play burned games and imported games on this one like with the debug units though?

    You can play burned disc with ESR patch. For debugging unit, you have to apply master patch for the image for it to boot.

    Since Logi26 also includes the McBoot Mem card, HDD and Network adapter. There are many different approaches you can do to play games.

    Exactly what Tichua has said.
    This console can play ESR patched games or you could load games from the hdd or over a network.
    But that is not really the point of this sale, if you only want to play burned games then you do not require the linux kit.
    I just included the mcboot memory card so that the buyer would be able to load their games off of a hard drive to reduce laser wear.

    Sorry mate, I would rather keep the Linux kit complete. It would be harder to sell the kit without the VGA cable.
    I would consider selling just the complete Linux kit on its own for £120 for people who already own a compatible PS2 console.

    Does the VGA give off a better picture (RGBHV) compared to the official Playstation 2 Component Cable (YPbPr)?

    On the right TV it could. Except the video output is only VGA when running 480p capable games, 240p or 480i in RGB use SCART format.

    So basically you are saying, it might only make a difference for games like Star Ocean: Till the End of Time, Radiata Stories, Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria and any other games that can run in 480p?

    The PS2 VGA cable is not RGBHV - it's RGB with (composite) sync on green. I would expect the picture quality to be basically identical to 480p YCrCb.

    you can also force some games to work in 480p via hdtv xploder or GSM, though the compability isn't perfect.

    Pretty much. Component is more newbie friendly. Same pinout no matter what resolution, and no DVD green screen.
