Even though pSX is a PlayStation emulator, that doesn't limit it to being exclusively PlayStation. Unfortunaly this is the truth! But pSX can do better with ps1 games!

Yah, which is precisely why pSX Author said ... but for now PS2 is still quite a low priority. ... He's still dedicated to fixing PlayStation emulation bugs and such, so if that's what you're worrying about, you're worrying over nothing

There will be "Xbox emulation"?

No ;o
It appears you're blowing what I wrote out of proportion... I said it "doesn't limit it to being exclusively PlayStation" intending "PlayStation" to mean "PS1", and that "PS2" is still considered PlayStation...

I have tried the PS2 BIOS but it only crashes out in 1.10 now.

Huh? Did you even read what I said earlier? It's supposed to be able to, and other people have seen it working. whitetigerx7: Have you tried an earlier version? Maybe starting from 1.0?

You could say that it's a PS2 emulator with functional PSOne emulation and WIP PS2 emulation.

It will best not release pSX that have PS2 BIOS option or anything from PS2 so ever. Keep pSX clean as possible away anything from PS2. If he plaining on working on the pSX2 then I rather have it on pSX2 instead of adding it to pSX. It will be 2 different programs if he keep PS2 away from pSX.
I think it a bad idea to add PS2 on pSX anyway. Number of reasons. He might make it more buggy. He also might causes it to slowdown to where PSX games might not be playable on pSX or break it.

Well... I'm pretty sure that pSX Author will be able to avoid that when the time comes. From a programming point of view, and being as skilled as he is, there is very little chance of PS2 emulation interfering much with PS1 emulation.
Think of it this way... most of the PS2 emulation code will most likely branch off to its own section, with very little of the PS1 code being modified at all to accomodate (as there will be little need to modify the core of the PS1 code). Once the emulator detects which type of game is loaded, all it has to do is, basically, switch to that segment of code. Sure, the PS2 emulation code might make some *calls* to functions in the PS1 code (like configuration coding, which will most likely be made independent of either segment, having certain options that only affect one set of code), but for the most part, I would assume that most of it will not actually be intertwined with the PS1 code.
So I'm sure there will be very little risk (if any) of creating bugs in the core PS1 coding once PS2 emulation is more fully worked on (which will, of course, be many many months, maybe a year or two, from now).

Yes, it's true! pSX v1.10 run PS2 bios (39001 my owned)! LOL! It's very slow 7-0,1 fps!! I'm arrived to ps1 logo then I close the emulator... Maybe PCSX2....

PCSX2 slow as well with that BIOS. I test it. It crap until they find away to speed PCSX2 up. I don't see pSX2 be any faster than PCSX2. Probably next 10 - 12 years or so it might have better speed running on a 10.0ghz or more.

Cut that time and processor speed in half, and I'd say that's realistic. 5-6 years for pSX to be at the level of PS2 functionality that it's at for PS1 right now, using a processor that's at least 5.0 GHz by our current standards (understanding, of course, that processor speed is merely the biggest factor of a processor's usefulness, not the only factor).
PCSX2 is coming along fairly nicely. I can actually play a few games at like 30-35 fps... not very good, but a good hope for its future...
