Yes Sony's Original Idea was to have the system Ship with linux... but that didnt happen.
Sony in partnership with IBM and Toshiba wanted to keep the system open to Open Source developers and programmers so they could have access to program for the CELL processor - they released the PS3 SDK for this reason... the only thing Linux does not have access to (At the Moment) is Access to the RSX Video Engine.
