It's not really that hard to run Mirror's Edge...

Also, a console doesn't really run a game at that insanely high of a resolution. It helps that you don't have the television two feet from your face. Plus, yeah, the way that the PS3 OS and it's lack of background operations works makes a difference, too. You're not completely correct in saying that a PS3 is better. It just seems that way because it's all optimized to look that way. Lots of other little short-cuts are taken with console games to make them look good without killing their frame rate.

Considering PS3's "10 year plan" it won't be long before PC is better in every possible way, save perhaps OPERATING SYSTEMS (gg microsoft)

The PS3 runs one thing at a time. Your computer runs many. Thus, a slight lag may occur with more stuff being done. And mirrors edge isnt that fun after youve beat it. Also, games dont need the highest resolution to be fun :D

Not to worry, you can install Linux on your PS3 if you want to be more confused and disillusioned than you already are at having bought a PS3.

Just a note, (But probably everyone already knows this, since nobody brought it up), that you can minimize your computers background processes by doing a clean boot. It's done me a bit of good when trying to run oblivion.

No. Safe mode, I'm pretty sure, disables a lot more things than what a clean-boot does. Clean-Boot pretty much stops everything that ISN'T needed for a normal windows boot. So, some programs still start up. Just not the fluff, like Antivirus programs or MSN equivalents.

I'm not saying I want Mirror's Edge. Just saying I thought resolution obliterated framerates at that level.

It's not as bad as you think. Trust me, I have experience with this type of thing.
