Say hello to cheap PS2 and PSP dev kits?

EDIT: Wrong title....read the article wrong. /facepalm

 

read the fineprint.

 

The bright side is even with fine print some of these will eventually make it to the gray market in a few years.

 

Speaking of that, anyone remembers that university (in japan I think) that bought all those Yarozes years ago?

The purpose was basically the same, wonder where those units ended...

 

This has been posted before, and like most programs open to colleges & universities it is actually harder than you'd initially assume to be accepted. There is no way an individual could pretend to be a tutor and print of details of a bogus college & software development course.... surely?

The only other comment I would make is that colleges tended to be offered PS2 Linux kits in the past rather than Tool units. I'd like to know what they are being sent these days, especially for the PSP.

 

Same thing they give developers, including the $2000+ price tag. Different support forums though.
