@mystylenaruto Linux is no longer supported by PS3, read the video description. That is why if you don't update your PS3 OS then you can't play online, because you need the latest PS3 OS to play online.
SONY banned the "other O/S" option so you can buy his SDK tool kit for $12,000usd. Hey, it is a big company, si it needs big profits.
There is no point in buying this stupid machine, sure, it has games, but it's no fun when you can't do what they promised at the beggining of the PS3 life, when I got the money to buy one I had to skip that chance, since it no longer suported LINUX.
@Merkalation If you have the older PS3 and if the firmware is less than v3.21, then you should still be able to install Linux, but of course playing PS3 games online won't be possible. RAM is 256 MB.
@policemasta linux is like an operateing system kinda like Vista or OSx or XP or all those popular ones. But linux is whats called an open source operateing system, and that means it is free and people can download it and make there own changes to the system to make it more usefull. It is often used in hacking because of its simplicity and how it dosent use allot of system resources such as RAM. So its just a way for people to get on the internet and stuff like a Windows OS would. But its free.
@westrsk windows 7 was compiled for PC (intel or AMD x86-64. the PS3 is a PowerPC which is different, they'd have to compile windows specifically for the hardware like they did with certain distros of Linux.
if i try this on my slim, will i be banned, or will no-longer have the privilege to Update my Ps3, most point of all, will Playstation Store still allow me get demos, videos, add-ons, Etc.
You used to be able to do it with the old ps3 so you cant do it with the slims but sony is gunna take out that feature with the new 3.21 update but fuck that im keeping linux and my old os meh.
im new to ps3, why did sony get rid of second operating system? that would been sweet to have your gaming console as a home computer as well.

@westrsk Second operating system is no longer supported, so installing Windows 7 requires great hacking skills I guess.
