Sorry about the short post an all but I find this quite funny.
They say that the PS3 is over priced but yet if Sony droped there price to the Arcade unit's base price, and advertised the Bluray player to the general viewing public as a Bluray player/WebTV/Video Game Console/Movie Downloader, it would be a done deal. Sony would break even with its price cuts within two years through gaining a new user base for there console and deteriorate all the sales the 360 would of gained from being the cheaper console.
These guys just don't give up. They should be thanking Sony for not cutting there prices and being able to pick up the budget shoppers that buy gifts for Christmas that are trying to save a few bucks because there 401k's are in jepordy. This in my eyes is just a stunt at trying to pull the wool over the general publics eyes, and seems like a cheap desperation shot to cover certain high employees asses.

Microsoft needs to learn to STFU! God is this CEO or what ever stupid?
1: I Hate apple and all their products. The only thing I can see my self getting is a Iphone or Ipod touch. However Microsoft is a horrible Hardware manufacturer. They can barely do software right anymore, but they aren't even close to Apple or Sony in terms Hardware. So I ask, if they can do that why don't they? Oh yeah! Because it would break every 5 seconds!
Microsoft needs to just exit stage left and accept defeat. Honestly work on your software please! Ever since you tried hardware the software even went down hill.
2: If you think the PS3 can be made for under $400 you're mistaken. The technology just isn't there yet, that's why PS3's can make super computers!:crazy:
Also Bill Gates is a loser now. I use to respect the man because he made his fortune rather then obtain it from other means. However he has been absorbed in his philanthropy, to the point that he is near a mad man.
Don't believe me? Search "Bill Gates releases Mosquitoes at TED2009".
What does Bill Gates have to do with this? Well I rather not buy a product that I have to stay on support for 20 hours, while he is brushing his teeth with a new gold tooth brush from the money I spent.

Oh but the thing is that people don't understand Microsoft's clever plan, they say that Ps3 should be sold at as low a price as an Xbox 360 arcade everytime to pressure Sony to lower the price and make them lose more money on each console that way they don't have to worry anymore about the quality of their console the RRoD error E74 or the making their internal studios develop games because Sony would be out of business.
Since their first xbox launch, MS has always been doing stuff like this. It's one of the reasons I dislike MS.
I forgot to add on to my post:

Spell checker removed it. :mad:

Sony are being clever IMO because they are already losing money on every console sold and theyre not giving in to the masses by cutting the price even lower than necessary so they can keep their losses to a minimum. MS spin this BS in an attempt to create pressure, but i think that sony have done well to keep a cool head on their shoulders during all this
Take whatever an MS spokesman has to say bout sony with a pinch of salt...
