So I take it you really meant to say "that other thread" (which was about using the Cell processor in own hardware designs) when writing "this thread" (which is about MorphOS port to PS3).

Considering that several Linux distributions run on the PS3's hypervisor in (the meanwhile abandoned in PS3 Slim and recent firmware versions) "OtherOS" mode I don't even think that Sony's approval would be needed. Getting an OS to run in "GameOS" mode however would be another matter altogether, which I doubt Sony would ever allow.
