hhmmm I can't see it, linux ran like a dog on it due to lack of ram.

Most people are peeved they removed a feature they didn't even use, thats the impression I got.

lol I don't even care anyway, doesn't effect me at all.

Buy one, then claim an £80 refund because it doesn't run Linux!

(I'm joking btw)

Yes because a games console is now worthless because you cant install a poorly running linux distro on it. Band wagon much.

No doubt its 1% or 2% people who really miss it, and 98% of others looking for a free meal, or just like to stick it to evil sony

My mate upgraded last week & we have to disagree. The new slim is just as clunky & he reckons if he was honest it's Noisier. Sound once loaded to Hd obviously but being smaller it gets hotter quicker so the fans spin up more.
Also the old fat one looks better & the dust doesn't stick to it, The slim matt one looks a bit crap to be honest.
Personally I would say buy the fat one & use the money to buy 2nd hand games, It's Brand new so warranty is not an issue, If 2nd hand i would go with the slim.

Have you got the slim and fat mixed up??
