Interesting - good post. I was one of the day 1 PS3 owners, and I was happy with it from then on. I was big into Resistance, as it was really the first 'next-gen' FPS that I played.
I like the XMB because it's very simple, the options are all in the same place - and while there are a lot of categories, it makes it easier (to me) to find what you need. I feel like someones with my 360 that it takes me a while to find what I'm looking for. Luckily, I don't have to search through the options much, unless I'm changing Routers (for the 500th time...but I think I have a good one now!).
I had the same feeling about the installs at first. I didn't like them because all it does is make it take longer. I got over that pretty quick though, now it doesn't bother me one bit, probably just because it's something you come to expect. At the same time, I have a few friends with PS3 that don't have internet. So I've been able to copy out some demo's to let them check out, which is really nice for them. And being able to copy data is nice - like you said with your MGS data - you don't own a PS3 now, but if you buy one one day, you can still have your save data as long as you keep it on the thumb drive.
I also agree with Pristine..it should have at least been an option for an Act at a time or the whole thing. Some people have put their own HD in the console, they could have 500 gigs - so a 10 gig install would be nothing. But that's somewhat irrelevent though, because Sony limits the amount of space available for installs, but I think an option would be nice for the special circumstance like this where you have 4-5 installs altogether.
As far as Linux, I'd still really like to read peoples experiences with it. I've really considered doing it, but like kn said - I'd want a larger HD first.
