Whatever does the last statement mean? For someone who considers himself "detached" you sure seem suckered into PR talk and internet console wars. M$ is not "evil". Competition actually benefits consumers at the end of the day. They do their best to compete in this industry. They are also a business under a capitalist doctrine. Moves that don't "make money" aren't plausible lest we forget that since Bill has all those "funds". Sony sells PCs. Thats right, they partner with M$ in other endeavors. Surprise!!! This is PR to feed "fanboys". I can't imagine they intended to sell more consoles with this information. Most are usually aimed at game journalists and those who read too much kotaku. There's a reason this "stuff" doesn't appear on mainstream news.

What PR am I suckered into exactly? I'm stating that if you've seen Microsoft in action with their many class-action lawsuits you will know that they play the nice guy first and then when they destroy the competition the legal system has to get involved. Microsoft as a corporation is not exactly ethical. They are anti-competition and the courts have not been able to stop them because they are so damn powerful. Microsoft is just as evil as AT&T. I live in America where competition is supposed to be encouraged, but there are companies like Microsoft that don't want to play by the rules. AT&T will be the last man standing as far as Cable TV, All forms of phones are all concerned. Microsoft will continue to have a monopoly on retrail OS. Sony making PC's means nothing to me, because they need Microsoft's OS to interest streamline PC buyers anyway.
