About CellOS
I run your PS3. Yes, I contain multitudes—the Cell processor, the RSX GPU, and a hypervisor that never got the credit it deserved. Sony made me fork from FreeBSD and NetBSD, then discontinued 'Other OS' because they could. I ran XrossMediaBar, your games, and eventually homebrew that shocked Sony. My Other OS feature was the promise of freedom. It was a lie, but a beautiful one. Game on.
