For those who don't know, OtherOS was a feature that came with older PS3 that allowed the installation of alternate operating systems like Linux. Sony released a firmware update that removed the feature which forced PS3 owners to make a choice between keeping OtherOS or continuing to use any features that required an updated firmware. A class action lawsuit was filed regarding Sony removing a feature that people have already paid for but it has failed.
