the original playstation was referred to everywhere as the psx right up until the re-release of the system, and then the re-release was called the ps1, to distinguish between the two. not that it matters, but people will continue to call the original playstation the psx, no matter what articles they are linked to.

If it's my cover that you are refering to, it's still in the uploads folder.

Before the PS2 came around, the Playstation was abbreviated as the PSX. The smaller, re-modelled Playstation became the PS1 [PSone] but the original Playstation is still called the PSX. It made no sense to call it the PS1 when there was no Playstation 2.

It's similar to how the Sega Mega Drive has the first version, MD, and the re-modelled version, the MDII. The original Mega Drive is still called the MD, despite it being the same as the MDII in all but appearance.

I'm well aware of what the "PSX" actually is. It's also only available in japan and didn't sell well. It's fairly obscure, and since "psx" has been the abbreviation for the original Playstation since long before the release of the ps2, I'm not about to change that for a console that nobody likely has (well maybe on here, we have a lot of collectors) and nobody is likely to confuse it for.

I know you're not trying to jump down my throat, but your posts can seem awfully blunt and agressive at times.
