			A fairly interesting read. http://www.cnn.com/2002/TECH/fun.games/12/...sang/... I didn't know that Sony sued a modchip retailer... and lost? News to me! Funny how the l33t gamers failed to report that, but was all over MS for the lik-sang incident... Oh well.

Oh well.

This is old news. It was posted on this site news section when it happened. Where you been? Hiding under a rock???

			Not the lik-sang part. It was mostly for the PS2 info. I didn't see that on the site?

			Bah, they only targeted Lik-Sang because it was the only store making its presents really visible by selling stuff online in English.

There's really nothing special about English. In fact, there are a bunch of places that sell gray-market hardware online in English and ship worldwide. What got Lik-Sang targeted was that it was the most successful at doing so.
