I am *really* glad I didn't buy a ps3

Seriously? Sony thinks it's a good thing to take their users to court for jail breaking their own equipment?

Sony is just plain bad.

Update:  Sony is really, really bad - they've got a restraining order against someone who broke into his own device!

Update 2: Now, it's not enough that they load malware into their customers computers, now they're selling ( or updating ) PS3's with SOFTWARE THEY CAN USE AS A BACK DOOR!  How nice.  Buy a toy from Sony, give them unlimited access to your LAN!

Geek Pr0n!

Good News! Xilinx prototyping kit, holds 2-16 Xilinx Virtex-5 FPGAs, up to 12GB memory! w00t!  


Bad news - Where are the 10GB Network IO ports?
Price too, probably, blah.  Case is available, network daughter cards too?

Extra credit:  Can you find the easter egg in the spec sheet?  Hint: it's there twice (sorta)!



Full spec sheet can be found here
