i really hope they are fake slim ps3s because i think they are the ugliest design ever. I still think the ps3 now is brilliant

if a slim PS3 helps Sony start being profitable with the PS3...does it matter how its design looks ?

I'm sure design has some impact in attracting a consumer. I mean iPods have sold well, not only because of quality, but because of the marketing and distinct slick look of the iPods.

But still...when you use an ipod you're looking at it (most of the time) so design plays a role in the amount of enjoyemnt you will get out of the product. On the other hand, when a person is playing their PS3 they aren't looking at it, at least it wouldnt be logical for them to be, so why care about design if the only time you'll really be looking at it is when you're unboxing it?

I don't think it's that logical either, I'm just arguing against your statement that design plays absolutely no role nor has absolutely no impact on its sales. I'm sure there's some people who'll be influenced by at least some ammount by design.
