I love these "just use your PC" comments in regards to OtherOS.
Does your PC have a Cell processor? If not, it doesn't do you much good in learning to code for a Cell, does it?
What if Sony pulled the Blu-Ray functionality? Just get a Blu-Ray player. They're cheap. They're right there. How about they pull the streaming functionality, or the MP3 playback? Just use your PC. It's right there. Forget what they sold you when you dropped your $300-$600 on the counter. Just use your PC.
Why even have a PS3 at all? You can play games on your PC. It's right there. Sony should just make their games run on a PC.
Oh, but they gave us all the great free updates and new features! Great stuff like 3d games and movies, which, while pretty cool, is probably utilized by a far lower percentage of PS3 owners than was OtherOS. Of course, you can't sell $2000 TVs with Linux.
Gee, why should people want to add *more* functionality to the machines they purchased? Hm... even though Sony and MS want to try to pitch their boxes as living room be-all-end-alls. Oh, they just want it to be on *their* terms.
And BTW, Geohot didn't go after the PS3 until *after* the slims were released, which *didn't* have OtherOS. It was only after that that Sony pulled OtherOS from the fats. Get your timelines straight."

I completely agree, also, not sure if this has been mentioned but possession is 9/10ths of the law right, we have all heard it and... if im paying $600+ for a system and some games your damn well sure going to do everything you can to make them "enjoyable" you buy the game, you own it in your domain, play it hack it mod it all you want.
