    if you tried to do what this guy is doing for NES with a Sony Playstation or IPhone you would sued and threatened with millions in legal bills. If you don't believe me, ask George Hotz.

    slashdot didn't move away from geeky stuff... certain corporate interests decided to attack the entire principle of DIY at its core. you can't expect slashdot to be silent about that.
