well seeing as how his main goal with the ps3s was to break through their security to run homebrew and pirated games, you have to see where my doubts are... but i guess now you're going to say

"but he said he would never support piracy!"

maybe he did and maybe he really stood by his words but i'm not gullible enough to believe everything that a guy trying to cover his actions will say... he even lied already during the case with sony ( saying that he had no knowledge of psn even though it was tagged on his youtube video )

anyway beyond that as you said he bought 5 ps3s that would total over a $500 loss...

my only point here is that to say that he benefitted sony as a customer is bogus and sadly is one of the things his supporters turn to when trying to justify his actions without even taking all factors into account 

Wow... just wow. I'm going to have a hard time replying to your posts without getting banned for flaming. But here goes.

You entire argument is based on a "fact" that you made up on the spot to make him look bad. For all we know he owned 50 PS3 games. Your argument is crap, and you know it. Even better it's the kind of argument that makes you feel good because there is no way to disprove it. 

And he didn't support piracy... his firmware specifically blocked playing of backups. It wasn't till his was hacked that playing backups was granted. 

Your calculations for how much he cost Sony is laughable too... Since you don't have any idea what kind of PS3s he owned. I'm sure he owned at least one Slim to test stuff out on. Which Sony profitted on, no? 

@bolded: link? 

"You entire argument is based on"

your argument isn't much better from my perspective as its based on his words

"For all we know he owned 50 PS3 games"

and for all we know he owned zero... i never said that he definitely had no games just that for me it seems he bought his ps3s primarily to hack for other purposes i may be wrong but thats my take on it ( which is why i said "where my doubts are" )

"Since you don't have any idea what kind of PS3s he owned"

his first exploit was based on a vulnerability in other os meaning that the ps3s he worked on to achieve it had to be fats and beyond that most of his hacking work on the ps3 predates the slim

but yes i suppose he may have owned a slim or 2 or none 

"Which Sony profitted on, no?"

lol do you think the profit sony makes on a slim is comparable to a $100 loss?
