What you failed to understand is that bringing a quality product to market requires serious expenses in R&D and marketing at the outset. But if you can weather that storm and remain profitable, as Sony clearly is, you stand to reap benefits for many years. That's why the PS2 has now exceeded 120 million units sold...no doubt driving the company's commitment to quality in the PS3. Are you really so myopic that you think Sony will lose money on this product? Did you think that about PS2?
