Are we forgetting who the real victims of the 8001050F are?

I think they bought the original model because they are able to installed different OS on them. I don't think you can do that anymore with the SLIM.

At some point, something must have come from nothing...

From what I understand, PS3's that were already online weren't affected.

false, every ps3 that used that particular chip were affected. But still, it only lasted 24 hours and only stopped you from playing trophy enabled games. Every other feature of the ps3 including non-trophy enabled games worked just as usual. I guess the clock went off, but thats no big deal, the front end clock could easily be reset.

ah. A few sites made it seem like PS3's that were already logged online would not be affected.

Nope. You would be fine until you attempted to get a trophy I think.. then it would crash that game? not sure. Never happened to me. I have two PS3s, the media server downstairs was never turned on though. my slim in my game room was fine. But the day after we studied the code in school.
