Sony ps3
Emoval of "Other OS"

1 April - Sony released an update which removes the "Other OS" menu option. I don't have much money and the reason I bought my PS3 was because it does everything in one box (Bluray player, dvd player, Games console, media streamer, computer).

I use my PS3 as a linux computer daily (I am now) for web/email/office. Because Sony are removing this functionality means I need to go and buy a new PC - or not install the updat and lose other functionality.

If they are removing features that were selling points, and even advertised as such, should they not be responsible for ensuring alternative facilities are available for those that paid for and used these features?

There should be 2 versions of the update so that people such as myself do not lose functionality they use and need. That way people could choose to have the option or not.

There is suggestion that the reason this is being removed is because of security issues. If this is the case then why do they not address the security issue rather than removing functionality?

What to do... whatever I choose will leave me out of pocket in one way or another and all through the fault of Sony.
