your last post isn't your only post, this thread is about ps3, which you made, and i did click the links, that's how i found out that this error has nothing to do with blu-ray, a ring, and death, so that just leaves "of".

 once again, spinning. don't you get dizzy with all this spinning?

Cell is Arnold Schwarzenegger confirmed!!!!!!!

Read this very carefully, TWICE, before you reply. 

You wrote an entire post complaining that I made up the name BRROD, which you don't feel fits the situation.

The name BBROD came not from me, but from the links.

Right after that, you failed. 

I think all console failures are pretty heinous. However I suspect this particular failure was intentional, or at least viewed as a casualty of war. Sony should have had an adequate back door to address this particular concern. The only reason one would be lacking that is the fear pirates might use it to modify the system.

Anyway it could be a real Pandora's box for Sony over time. How often does the average consumer lose internet service. How often do consumers lose power. What happens if the failure is on Sony's end of the pipeline. When you look at it from that perspective it could be the coding version of a time bomb. Just waiting for one slip up to devastate the market place.

Anyone that uses a computer knows is an eventuality that they are going to lose a connection during a download for one reason or another. Now if that is the cause of this code killing the drive. Then we will probably hear more about this, and it means that we are one major systems failure from a major public outcry. Can you imagine the stories solar flare kills thousands of consoles, power outage killed my console.

I hope that this problem is truly rare, and I hope that a nightmare scenario never takes place. While it might be funny to many its never funny for someone to do without a console they paid for. I also hope that Sony takes responsibility for this if its bad software on their part. A bad line of code is no better or worse then a warping mother board. The only thing worse then having to do without your console for a month is also having to pay a hundred and fifty bucks to get it fixed if you did nothing to break it in the first place.

holy crap, now im dizzy!

please please PLEASE, show me the post where i said "starcraft, you made up the name BRROD".

please.

i was explaining that the error code had nothing to do with the name it was given. did i say you made it up? did i? show me.

(i think i sense a spin coming along)

You have just been upgraded to.........

EPIC FAIL!!!! 

"Anyone that uses a computer knows is an eventuality that they are going to lose a connection during a download for one reason or another. Now if that is the cause of this code killing the drive."

This is why after you downloading the update  then  you install it. There are back-up battery packs you can get for your PC in case of power outages. It a must for me since I also have cable phone.

......i think i'm going to be sick....

WHERE DID I SAY THAT YOU MADE UP THE NAME BRROD???

What comes after EPIC FAIL???

I've never even seen someone go that high.............. 

Hopefully they can find a way to patch this problem up via firmware.
