I bet quite a few PS3s were bought primarily as a blu-ray player.
You can blame in part cheaper blu-ray players this christams for poor PS3 sales.
Last January the PS3 got a bump when the HD-DVD aliance fell apart as it was still the cheapest blu-ray player. This January, no blu-ray bump and PS3 sales are down yoy.
Of course the attachment rate will let us know.
Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.
