I've been curious about some things on the ps2 when I bought it last week, these are jus some questions ive been curious about since I bought it......

1. It says "Expansion Bay" on the back-lower side of the Ps2, what the hell is this, what does it do, and when will it come out?

2. The some bluish connection ports on the front-lower part of the Ps2, what is this?

3. When I start my ps2 up, i started to mess with the options and such and then i came upon some "disk speed" thing and it gave me two options to set it on, "STANDARD AND FAST", it was set on standard, and like anyone else, i set it to fast......does this make load times shorter or what? theres also another one that says texture smoothing or somethin like that.....what is this?

4.Whats the point of the switch in the back of the console? Why do i have to turn it on then press the reset button? I find no point in doing this

5. I heard the DVD sucked or was "lo pro" and the sound was weaker and overall it was weaker than the "Xbox"......Is this true? or are they the same quality?

6. Why does it come with only 2 controller ports? that sucks....

Answer as many as u like.........i jus need an answer to all these questions....thx
