O, it is not even close to be a powerhouse, believe me ( someone who actually runs linux on PS3 up to nowah well, the wii had its run, its ps3 hacking time, i for one am excited to see what people will do with such a powerhouse running unsigned code
O_O You read my mind, didn't you?!This whole story made me smile from ear to ear! This is crazy. Encryption keys are being released right, left and center, including the PSP it seems. Guess it means Sony now have the largest base of open source consoles (and presumably handhelds) on the planet?! It's like the Dreamcast all over again.

I'm sure they proof-read and tested their code. The problem is, a security system is only as strong as the weakest part. And if hackers can compromise any part of a security system, odds are pretty good they can crack it wide open. Sony / Nintendo / Microsoft programmers are good programmers but they can only do so much.I don't think they need to re-think their security. Simply proof read and properly test their code.

No hacker tough about hacking it properly until Sony removed the "other OS" option.I like how this was broken, but gads, such a flaw took a long time to notice.
