They could cut the price of the PS3 to 299 right now, and they might sell 150 million. I'll just pretend this is a huge joke, so I don't lose respect for a lot of people who defend this rubbish. |
They could cut price to 349 before Christmas, by then components should be quite cheaper (next bulk price cuts shold be in Autumn).
Following Moore's law, they should be able to cut price to 299 without damage during Spring 2009, but I guess they'll do it later to start earning on HW instead of simply breaking even (or coming close to it). If with 10 years life they mean since WW launch was completed, PS3 end of life should be during Spring 2017, that's 8 years since Spring 2009, so to achieve their goal they should sell on average 15-16mln consoles a year. Possible? Likely? Unlikely? Impossible?
