One of the most frequently asked questions via e-mail, IRC, and on the Forums we get asked is "How did CJPC get his hands on a PS3 Debug/TEST machine?!"
The answer: Monitor places such as eBay like it's your job, and win them before "big brother" Sony catches on and closes the auction of course! :D
A perfect example (in case anyone is interested in buying one) is the auction set to end tomorrow here:
Not only does that PS3 Dev machine include hardware, but as stated by the seller dev16, it has the required 1.92 and 2.00 Debug software updates too- very nice! Happy bidding guys, and if anyone wins drop us an e-mail. :P
