Hi guys,

I am a new proud owner of a PS3. The current firmware is 3.41 so i was wondering if i should upgrade to 3.50?

I scoured the net and there seems to be quite a number of horror stories on how the update messed up the system.

Also, with the new firmware, is installing Linux still a possibility?

Thanks guys smile.gif

not possible bro.. Other OS function is not supported in 3.50
just upgrade it.. if u choose not to, you won't be able to connect to PSN, which is the soul of your PS3..
go and upgrade the firmware ASAP.. then we can play GT5 and NFS (currenty i'm playing those 2)  tongue.gif
