Nov 20th 2006 10:10PM Chris, you' re wrong about that. He didn't modify Sony's software, he used a legal interfaze to install a OS licenced by the GPL, so it doesn't seem illegal to me at all.
I think that this is amazing. You can use the PS3 as a Media Center, also emulate, to play almost every previous-generation games you may think of, and, with the aid of bluetooth and usb, you can use any hardware that has drivers. Also, I don't think it's a distro problem, it could have been with any distro that supports PowerPC, but yes, there is a lot of room for improvements. The kernel could be optimized, it could boot almost instantly and work blazingly fast. Also, with a VGA cable and 1080p support, it makes an awesome Media Center.
The better choice would be to wait. This has a lot of potencial. I would like to see what enthusiast can offer on the future.
