Its for reals!
The guy explains how they did it, then gives a super brief, but proof of working, hacked wii demo.
Bring on the WiiLinux etc!

yeah my menus right out of the box on my PS3 as an option for folding @home. no need to do anything special to get it to fold.

be nice to get a third party FREE web browser! cant believe the charge for it now :p
Also would be REALLY neat to be able to run linux using the controller - call me a geek, but it just seeems it would be super cool to just motion move around the screen with no mouse or keyboard

f@h will never work since the wii is so under-powered it isnt funny ;) Maybe they should hack it to slap in a nice quad core chip and better video
It is still fun to play though.
