One of the most exciting aspects of the PlayStation 3 is that it allows users to install an alternative operating system. You can't overwrite Sony's GameOS or access privileged resources, but you can run your own applications on the new Cell Broadband Engine processor -- called the "CBE processor" or the "Cell" for short. The Cell is the mighty brain of the PlayStation 3, and this article explains how to access it by installing Linux on the console.
