The thing is three years old, people. It was old in hardware terms when it launched, after all that took at least a year, if not longer. That's what they call spin or Sony bullshit.

Old when it launched? I guess the cost of prodcution for the PS3 cost was $848 for no reason then

Isn't a year old computer hardware not considered old by the tech-geeks? And that's minimal a year old because consoles take a long time to plan, produce and then launch. We could be talking about 1.5 year or perhaps even 2 year before it was launched all over the world. Oh, let's not forget. The main cost of that 848$ was for the Blu-Ray player. And bragging about a price of 848$ for a gameconsole is pretty sad.
