Dude, You're entitled to your opinion however have you seen the results and poll from the knife trick?
The results are NOT GOOD in the future..
There so many people who ues the knife trick and ends up throwing away their machines b/c the laser gets shot gradually..
Also as for chips if anyone wants it modded but isn't sure they could handle it than they should consult professional solderer for a mere fee..Better than jeopardizing the machine..Don't you agree? I'm not if you came this forum to start up sh** or maybe just to throw your opinion but Knife trick is the early grave for PS2's..Knife is meant for cutting foods not Ps2's..(Borrowed quote off someone).
I respect your opinion, but don't advise anyone to do something they will regret..It might save few bucks now but in the future you will spend lot more buying a new machine..

well said AO3!!
