This has since been taken down so I had to nab this picture from another website that is near and dear to our hearts but it seems that even the mighty Keven Butler is mortal.
That sequence of numbers and letters is the USB dongle ID generator key. Why is that important? People use it to hack PS3's. It's common knowledge at this point that the PS3 has some security issues but this is a pretty bold attack. Hopefully someone let Mr. Butler in on the joke, and also I hope that Sony won't subpoena this guy like they did to the last guy that hacked the system. Time will only tell.
