But we can hope, and dream! ;) I hope, for Sony's sake, that they do  
include Linux, because you just know that people are going to try to  
hack it for homebrew purposes, and unless they allow homebrew in an  
appropriate sandbox (IE keeping the software separate from the  
onboard APIs, to help prevent circumvention of Sony's anti-game- 
piracy systems), they're just begging for someone to rip them a new  
security hole.
