I was wondering what the sarcastic gamer community thought of these articles. Found here (http://consumerist.com/consumer/sony/dust-voids-ps3-warranty-321226.php) and the second part of the article here (http://consumerist.com/consumer/audio/sony-csr-what-no-dust-doesnt-void-your-ps3-warranty-321288.php).

I have a printer that is made of the same plastic as the PS3 (Black glossy) and that thing is a freaking dust magnet.

Also, I had a fat PS2 and there was that vent thing below the disc drive and that thing was always filling up with dust. My slim gets dusty on top but the vent part never gets as bad as it did with the fat PS2.

Anyways, voiding a warranty for dust is stupid but Sony did void a warranty on one of my fat PS2's for using a third-party accessory. That third-party accessory was the HDD packaged with and required to play Final Fantasy XI.
