Yep. I think its got something to do with one of the expansion ports. U can hook it up to the internet for online gaming and shit. Havent done it myself, so Im just guessing.

It's got two USB sockets on the front - the same as a PC has.

Those ports are for hooking it up to the specially designed hard drive which sony is released in the next few months, and the modem for it which is being released also. You cannot directly hook the ps2 up to a computer.

The PS2 drive actually fits into the expansion bay inside, and youre right the modem connects using the USB port, and you cannot connect it to a PC.

i bet there is a way w/ enough caffiene and reverse engineering... :P
if those USB ports will have a "special" sony modem that will connect through the Internet.. then it'll use common Internet protocols that pcs use.. there has to be a way to trick the psx2 into thinking the comp in your room is a server comp on the net...

you can connect the ps2 with the computer and burn games, you can play with a boot-cd

"basically all I'm trying to do is play my playstation using my sony monitor."
that's possible, hook your TV up to your computer. Not your ps2. You will have to buy the adapter thingy tho
