I'm not sure if Infectus works on Demo units, however, what I do know is for Retail PS3 units it will only allow you to dump and flash the Firmware from the same console... so you couldn't take one from a friend's and flash it to yours.

it will completely mess up your ps3. it will write fine.
the firmware marries its self to the board in the ps3 i believe.. each board has a unique serial/hash

Kinda like the 360 firmware then? I saw a tut for unbanning the 360 that involved changing the 360 ID through changing the firmware of the console.
