Probably everybody with a weblog is going to link to this: Game console ‘could be used in missiles’ “Japanese authorities have restricted the export of Sony’s new game

console, PlayStation 2, amid fears that it could be exploited for

weapons technology…The government’s concern centres on a powerful processor

responsible for the console’s realistic graphics. Experts believe this

could be converted for use in missiles that read visual information to

home in on targets. Sony said it did not expect the restrictions to

affect PlayStation 2’s release in other countries.” [The Telegraph]
