Both those chips are pretty much equal (although DMS4 has toxic os has some apps on it don't know about the matrix firmware). can't do the linux thing. you'd need a wireless gaming adapter for wireless connection (which will be useless if you wanna use the ps2 for internet browsing since you can't install linux it'd only come in handy for online play on the road).

I originally wanted a DMS 4 Pro for my v.4 PS2. My picky motherboard would produce an occasional black screen with the DMS chip. I settled on a a Matrix Infinity, and I couldn't be happier. It works great. You won't go wrong with either one. They're the best two chips out there. If you get a premod, make sure you get it from a reputable site, there are a lot of clone chips out there.

26. Q. I'm in the market for a modchip or premodded console. What are some reputable sites I can order from?
A. http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/251223 In addition modchip.com and norcalmods.com are supposed to be reliable.
