lol awesome. you're a inspiration to all of us who lack the balls to rip apart 600$ machines.

i'd do some backups though just for safe-keeping. i've heard several stores of fixed up ps3's not always lasting too long.

lol thanks.  I figured since it was dead, and waaaaay out of warranty (its a 60 gig launch unit) I had nothing to lose.  I would never have done this to a working machine, or even a dead one still under warranty.

 

And yeah, my next step is to back up all my saves and deactivate my PSN account, along with delete all of my music/pictures/games/etc.

I have a plan for this PS3...

Just be cautious now, I did this trick with my 40gb out of warranty and it was a no go : YLOD was still there.

You can't be sure this PS3 will last for very long
