Apart from the RoD issue the Sony section is just plain wrong, since MS are the ones that are eating away Sony's market share piece by piece. Also, PS3 started at $600 and costs $400 after 2 years, Xbox started at $400 and costs $300 after 3 years - how is that a "small pricecut" for the PS3 compared to the Xbox? MS has a bunch of system sellers along with a huge and diversified library of quality games, while Sony has only one must-have title and almost no RPGs. It is doubtful whether Blu-ray will take off at all, and even if it does, this won't happen before the end of 2010. It appears to me that MS is currently trying hard to make up for the RoD and deliver quality to their customers, whereas Sony do not seem to have awoken from their 100-year sleep yet. At the current rate, the PS3 will not catch up with the 360 until the end of 2010, and even if it finally does overtake the 360, this console generation will have been a huge success for MS because they will have almost measured up to their toughest competitor that held a quasi-monopoly in the previous generation.
I mostly agree with the Google section, but I don't think that Apple will do much damage. If you think about it objectively, Apple is far worse than MS ever was, and I hope people will notice this soon enough which would mean that history might repeat itself for Apple.
