It's simple. It's effective but it's possibly a bit dodgy...
Downgrading your PSP to firmware 1.5 is done for one of several reasons:
1.You want to play emulators and homebrew (free and legal) games.
2.You want to play pirate games (and I don't mean the Jolly Roger type)
Yes, you can do both and games are pretty easy to come by, but my interest was in the first section, especially playing the Megadrive games i still have gathering dust, but on a portable system.
Downgrading took 5 minutes with no problems. Once this was done it only took another few minutes to install the emulators and get them running.
The Snes emulator was a bit slow, disappointing actually, but the Megadrive was great.
However, I soon got bored and now my PSP is back to 'normal' at firmware 2.0. It was a good experiment though.
Sony have, of course, fought back now with firmware 2.01 which takes away the loophole used to downgrade. There will be ways around this, but if you do want to try it, don't upgrade for now...

Aye.
If you want to be Jolly Rogering it you need a humongous memory stick, I wanted to play Snes games but, as you said, the emulator was pretty dire in terms of speed.
