Just to point out, the guy wasn't trying to put linux on his PS3 that was already possible even after its removal.

I think people are to blame for where the industry is going. It's them that vote with their wallets, become tribal and pledge allegiance to a brand, but in all fairness they don't have a choice; For example what alternative gaming machine do you play? certainly hope it's not xbox. PC perhaps? windows I bet because you have to jump through hoops to get your game on in linux. You are left without a choice and you choose the lesser of two evils.
