I'd respectfully disagree. Yesterday's dollars mean nothing to the bottom line now, and the number of current employees has no impact on the promise of future possible profits. I've survived three reductions in force (layoffs...) and the amount of work expected for your division does NOT decrease, just because the amount of bodies present has.
I'd also suggest that if a division is losing money now, when the savings is needed, you cut in anyway possible in that division to mitigate the losses. Unless you are saying that you think SCE is running at 100% capacity AND efficiency (highly unlikely).
Hell I hope this dude is wrong. If they don't start saving money on the playstation brand, how are they ever going to lower the damn price?
