    Default Goodbye "Other OS" and goodbye crappy half @ssed fake hacks.

    The next system software update for the PlayStation 3 (PS3) system will be released on April 1, 2010 (JST), and will disable the ?Install Other OS? feature that was available on the PS3 systems prior to the current slimmer models, launched in September 2009. This feature enabled users to install an operating system, but due to security concerns, Sony Computer Entertainment will remove the functionality through the 3.21 system software update.

    In addition, disabling the ?Other OS? feature will help ensure that PS3 owners will continue to have access to the broad range of gaming and entertainment content from SCE and its content partners on a more secure system.

    For those PS3 users who are currently using the ?Other OS? feature but choose to install the system software update, to avoid data loss they first need to back-up any data stored within the hard drive partition used by the ?Other OS,? as they will not be able to access that data following the update.

    That sucks big time, I don't have a Phat atm but I was hoping that the exploit/hack would evolve onto the Slim and enable BC for my PS2 games, I'm tired of swapping and changing between my 2 consoles

    I'm pretty sure the Other OS option would have done wonders for hackers and modders and that is ultimately the reason why they've chose to downgrade the system... I'm sure someone will find a work around anyway, they always do.

    I think you should edit your first post and explain what the settings do.
    I think that is what he meant by "wtf?".
    You say how to do something but not what it's for.

    You got it in one, also I don't see how that would help me play PS2 games on my Slim PS3
