Look who is *****ing about dongle news ( @nomad098 )...the one who got infracted (i don't remember the reason) and telling weeks ago that this was not *news* because i was publishing something similar.
So it's no news if you post it, me or annelies...but it's news now because pirate frontpaged it.

I think i will shuffle for a while.

I know and I think if you're capable of performing the conversion then you're 1UP on the Dongles, but sadly the general population simply do not have the skills to convert their console.

When you think about it the 3.55 CFW "gang" is rather slim compared to other "open" consoles. So you've already got a niche market and out of that market only a low percentage can convert from CEX -> DEX. So it's not a viable solution for the majority of CFW users and the TB is.

Since the process is relatively easy for someone like me to do I would go the CEX -> DEX route in a split second - that is if I owned a CFW PS3. I'd never buy a TB, but that's not due to anything other then the fact I rarely play games and when I do the PS3 doesn't have much to offer then generic crap.

Trust me, I agree with you.

Anyone who can read has the mental capacity to do CEX->DEX.
The amount of easy tutorials and now the special .PUPs that have been released at crunch make it easy. People are just too lazy to read and follow. They're also the same people who brick their dongles

People don't like to read, and when they read they make their own (most of the times) wrong assumptions.

I feel i little...

Soon their TBv1 will magically stop being able to play new games and they will claim that it is the fault of the older hardware and that people should pay out the butt and buy a TBv2.

Regarding the general CFW base;

Read (for the most part)- yes.
Follow instructions - maybe.
Comprehend - most likely not.
Brick PS3 - probably.

I've been monitoring many threads regarding CED->DEX conversion including the guides and a lot of people are having a hard time with rudimentary tasks due to their lack of experience with using the software and operating systems and these people are "regulars" on each respective forum.

I find that people do not like...

to read due to the fact they are lazy and incompetent. Heck, most people don't even realize you should read and comprehend the entire guide and every step before attempting the process whereas some get stuck due to they didn't want to spend time reading.

It's sad that hardware, games and software today have "lessons" and "instructions" built into them as the publisher knows the user won't read the documentation that comes with it
and I see questions asked in these CEX -> DEX threads that are answered inside the guide or found using an easy search.


If you're going to attempt CEX - DEX I suggest...

you find a guide that has worked for others, read it twice, gather everything necessary, read it again, check what you've gathered and then if there is something you do not understand then search and make sure you do understand; a last resort being posting asking a question when you can easily find the information out there by utilizing search engines or a chatroom with people who've followed the guide. Once you have a complete understanding of the process then proceed, but with caution. If the guide is long print a copy and check each step as you go along so you don't lose your place.

@hellsing9 - Regarding users making assumptions that should not be the case if the guide is straight forward. However, generally people don't want to read and make up their own mind on issues as it's easier just to repeat what others say. It's like reading a newspaper and taking it literally without questioning the motive of the author(s). Anyone who takes something like that at face value is in all honesty stupid and to repeat is even more ignorant.

@jennys what's with the holier than thou attitude?

why you feel the need to belittle users at every opportunity is beyond me, especially when it has nothing to do with the topic at hand.

There's no reason to be that guy.
