This is pretty insane. Ostensibly this is even rarer than other Sony oddities such as as the Net Yaroze[0] or the Japanese PSX[1]. I wonder if it truly is the last Nintendo/Sony "PlayStation" in existence.

Net Yaroze is not particularly rare.

  Neither is the PSX which you can easily buy used in Japan.

    Yeah, saw one lying around the Junk section of HARD OFF for not much. It's only rare in the western market.

      A working one is much harder to find, the hard drive is signed to the individual unit so when it breaks it's impossible to replace and you end up with a brick.

        How are they paired? is it using ATA password like Xbox? HDD serial number? its all easily bypassable nowadays.

I have a PSX sitting next to my TV right now, hard drive surprisingly still works and everything. It's an interesting console, mine is a later model (DESR-7700) and can even write to a memory card to play later on the PSP while on the go. Funny enough while I was at SIE, I brought the console in and no one had seen it before. Sat on my desk and started a few conversations from people walking by checking it out.

The PS2 Linux Kit was amazing

Before the retro collectors market went crazy a friend got a net yaroze in a carboot sale for a five quid. That day he came back with about 10 playstations.
