Void your PS3 Warranty with a Surge Protector == Epic Fail
tehArtist \| 10:09 PM on 10.16.2007	11 comments

Greetings out there once again Dtoid Nation...

I ran across this little tidbit of info on MaxConsole. I don't know how true this is. However, if it is true, Sony can just go fuck themselves, this is one of the MANY reasons I won't be buying the PS3.

Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

"the PS3 is only allowed to be plugged into the wall directly."

There's an electrical outlet in the floor in my room. If I plug a PS3 into it, does it void the warranty

I will give you mad respect if you call sony and ask them then clog about their response..Hell, actually, make a fucking recording of it.

When I have the time, I will totally do that

First of all, that sucks.

Second of all, you need to type it up in your blog and provide an opinion. Don't just give us a link and a "that sucks." (My comment is an exception, so nyah.)

@Necros

I don't know for sure if this is true or not, So it didn't really call for an opinion just yet.

If true... this is stupid as hell.

I saw that too, total bullshit. Way to screw your (precious few) PSTriple customers, Sony.

Ummm...."==" is a comparison, if you want to define it as an epic fail you have to use just "=". This message brought to you by me being a mega nerd with way to much computer science homework in my life.

@ Bloodborne

Yeah, Because 5 million people with PS3's is `precious few`

What a pile of crap...I have mine plugged into a surge protector, and I�m sure many others do, too.

'==' is an operator that means 'equivalent to' go study your operators =p
