@jettrii ,yes after i wrote about MS ownership i looked it up and i also looked up Sonys position ,and it looks like they learned some lessons from MS and they pay nvidia a licence for the tech but handle the fab side themselves and have acces to all refinements and cost lowering benefits going forward and can renegotiate down the line so they get savings and aren't locked into a price per gpu like MS was, it seems they have more control than MS did with nvidia ,plus as i said early the cell isn't the main reason for the ps3's expense its blu ray

Yea, the Blu-ray drive is and probably will always be the most expensive part of the PS3 unless Sony manages to find a way to lower it drasticly, in which case I suspect RSX will be more expensive than the Cell in the long run.



Good news Everyone!
