If bullying is standing up for yourself/your group then, I guess we are all bullies.
I can see this is quickly going to degenerate into a flame war, but BULLYING is selling someone a car and then telling them it is ILLEGAL to take that car apart and put different parts in it

THAT is essentially what sony has been trying to do, and frankly quite, anyone who continues to bow to thier abuse and buy thier products is an idiot!

I respect you and your opinion but, why don't you respect me and my opinion? (I take back calling you terrible, even if you agree to me calling you that.) Since, it seems like you don't respect me or my opinions then this could lead to a flame war. Mostly likey not me involved but it still could happen. Therefore, I will say no more against your opinions and I'm sorry again for calling you terrible.

Hey nothing personal I agree to disagree, and the idiot statement wasnt aimed specifically at you......... it is my opinion that anyone that can buy sony products knowing what they have tried to do is an idiot...... not aimed at you, its aimed at anyone who keeps buying thier stuff....... is just my opinion.

It's okay. Maybe, we can be ignorant sometimes. :)

I really do like Sony's consoles but Im going to stop buying from Sony. Nintendo is a much better company. All pro-sony support seem to think that Geohot was responcable for hacks online but wasnt and isnt. They existed before him and will after. Will not buy the NGP because of this case.

I'd like to stick a stick up his rear-view.
Ironically, those "customers" are against this kind of "protection".

Let's see the aftermath of this because I heard about a Boycott that Mr Geohot was joining(with Anonymous I think) to not buy Sony products and if you bought one, return it .

In here this site (http://www.thebestpageintheuniverse.net ... y_***) explains something I didnt know about Sony taking down an european site that was selling japanese psp, I guess was a bit exccesive from Sony. Well things change after this whole thing about breaking down completely the PS3 in the PS3 scene, I'll wait for a Dashboard hack for the xbox360 without JTAG.
