I've never even seen a slimline in the flesh.

My PS2 isn't fat! ;-;
I have the larger PS2, and it hasn't failed me yet.
I still have the old version since my PS2 is in good conditions. I prefer the slimmer model for its lighter weight and also less noise.
The slimline comes with an free in built Ethernet adapter making it possible to go online with games out of the box.
Hence it wins.
Personally, I prefer the skinny one. It seems to run everything like the day I bought it. I used to have a fat one, but traded it in when the skinny version came out. I didn't have any problems with the fat one, but I've seen plenty of others who have.
I worked for GameStop for a few years, and generally the problem I always came across was that fat PS2s were having a really hard time running newer games. I remember when God of War 2 came out, we were getting a ton of copies returned because the customers claimed they were "defective." Turns it, it was because each one of those people had the older models.
Regardless of the fat or skinny model, PS2 is still the sh*t imo.
I like small hardware, so of course I like the thin PS2 much, much more.
