No Sony messed up. They over reacted and know have given an excuse to the hacker community to crack there system to run Linux on there machine. You can try and blow that off but hackers try to run linux on everything(they just loaded linux on the N900). Fromt here you get the Homebrew community because of the ability of running unsigned code.
This guys exploit that they are patching was very complicated and risky it involved opening up the console and it didn't even run games. perhaps it could of been simpler but now because of Sony's reaction I can guarantee you will be able to run ISOs on your PS3 slim in 6 months.
Oh well.

Sony did'nt give anybody an excuse. The hacker community's going to do what they do regardless. lol

Well actually they did. You see the Hacker particularly Linux Freaks that love to put linux on toasters really ignored the PS3 because it could run linux already. But by taking away the linux feature that was already there they now have given a new device for Linux to run and plus the motivation of those who actually used the PS3 for linux.
No one hacks a Dell to run windows. However if Dell took away the ability for windows to run on their computers people would hack it. Before Homebrew came about you cold load Gecko Linux on the Wii. people run Ubuntu on phones. Some peopel hack for the challenge.
