I dont see what the big deal is.if you own a product and want to make it work better or do things it wasnt built to do then it should be your choice.whether its an xbox,ps,a ninetendo,a car,an iphone or any other things you brought it,you own it so it should be your chice what you do with it.As soon as we start letting people or companies tell us what we can do with our own products we lose freedom.

custom built gaming pc from early 2010,ps2 with 15 games all original,ps3 500gbs with 5 games all original,yamaha amp and 5.1channel surround sound speakers,46inch sony lcd smart tv.
