I know this is off topic but I couldn't resist posting about this in here. I just found out right now that there's a Linux kit for the Sony PS2. You can actually turn your PS2 into a PC <A HREF="http://www.us.playstation.com/hardware/more/SCPH-97047.asp" target="_new">here</A>.

i read a network security article about these kinds of things. it was about the dream cast specificaly. you load linux and put it on a network. it then makes a vpn connection to the ip address you specified on the cd image. you can then control that box and hack away like you are in the building. it wasnt of any real use, it was just meant to be a wake up call that any device could be used to circumvent a networks security.

how do you shoot the devil in the back? what happens if you miss? -verbal
