That is 3 Dollars and 28 cents per console.The 25C3 presenters claim they were able to run the attack in only four weekends, using a network of 200 PlayStation 3 game consoles at a cost of $657.

Nothing is secure. Nothing is unbreakable. Whether or not it is worth the time and effort to crack something is the question. A padlock just stops a large number of people, not the ones that really want to destroy the padlock and have the toolbox with them to do it. The same goes with the crypto world. The banking world and all the hacking that goes on by the "forces of evil" demonstrate over and over how insecure much of the worlds public and commercial business security is. What has surprised me really is that after the issues of MD5 became known, that the applied science in encryption didn't move forward another generation and replace it..... well really we all know why... it would have cost some entity more money than they cared to put into it. And maybe, just maybe some ego's would have to be swallowed. A no brainer really as we seem to keep repeating this scenario over an over on about everything humans get involved with.
