kowen, can you tone it down a little bit?

Oh its only a bit of fun.... I've decided it'll all be ok by this time tomorrow so its best to be light hearted about it.

Im just leaving my PS3 sleeping for today....

and yet this will make it's round's across the internet, manytime's over and we end up getting 15 thread's about the same thing!

LI know your having a little fun with this but as you can see just in one thread alone we are already upt o 50+ pages

Dont get me wrong... I am being light hearted about it now... best way to be... 

But at the same time you cant underestimate the size of this story...

When was the last time an electronics firm told 20m consumers not to turn on one of its devices???

well if you read what Sony was stateing , they are saying that you may loose or have corrupted data file's while you are using the PS3. I do not think that pertain's to your old data online but what you store on your PS3's hardrive while you would be using it without the UPDATE to the Clock. which does indeed make sense because they do not want you to loose Data that may happen. they are just trying to prevent the loss. they are requesting you not to so in order that you do not loose the data.
