"See how it works?"

nah all i see is that we see things differently, just like how you believe that even though theres nothing on the console, the box it comes in ( which has all of the supported media and formats - bluray, compact disc, wifi, dolby, etc), in ps3 tv ads or other promos about other os thats its still being advertised as a major ps3 feature but i see otherwise

It was being advertised as a feature. View my links.

Regardless, the matter still comes down to whether Sony has the right to remove features from a system that has been bought and paid for....

They didn't remove any features. They gave you a choice.  Keep OtherOS and don't access the PSN while you have it.  Or leave OtherOS and keep the PSN.  The PSN isn't promised, it isn't guaranteed. It's merely a perk.   40 years from now Sony, doesn't have to still allow access for your PS3 to PSN.   Period.  You're wrong.

The courts have spoken.   Get over it.   Christ the PS3 is a miserable (PC) anyways.   Only retards ran Linux on it.

PSN PLUS other things, such as introduced features from firmware updates, including the possibility of being able to run off the shelf games.

I know you're late to this, but do yourself a favour and read over the points that have already been discussed.

Yes, the courts have spoken, and Sony was found not guilty. That does not imply they are innocent. If you read the article, yoiu'll see that the case was dismissed based on lack of evidence. If new evidence comes up, this could most likely come back again...

I love how these people talk up about how POWERFUL the PS3 is, yet when the subject of Linux comes up for it "oh it's just miserable. No power at all". Contradictory much?


You still didn't answer what I just said.  PSN is an accessory that Sony does not have to provide.  It's a service that you agree to abide by their terms and conditions to use.  It's a seperate entity from the PS3 itself.  PSN Plus is just a further example of that.

The courts have spoken,  the case was dismissed because as it currently stands there is NO case. Sony denied you service to the PSN, not to your system.  While that sucks, nothing about that is illegal hence the court result.  No new evidence is going to crop up so as I said,  you're going to have to accept it.

The PS3 is an incredibly power gaming machine (Relative to it's competing consoles),  for standard every day computing?  It's miserable as they all are.  It's built for gaming with the open-endedness to allow Linux usage.  You're still a retard for using Linux on it. The only viable explanation is wanting to 'utilize' the cell processor.  Which I am sure encompassed a few thousand people.
