Sweet sweet vindication:

I contacted the author and editor of the article to verify how and why the word ´would´ was added. This is the reply I received.

I think you can use the story without the word "would". It was probably added in the editing process in an attempt to clarify the quote, which was "I lose money on every PlayStation I make -- how's that for logic."

Wow. So, an editor, who I assume wasn't present for the conversation, added (would) into the quote. I wonder what kind of editing process allows that, since it competely screws up the meaning of what is being said.

sinha, this may be the last time I'm so eager to defend a "reporter's perspective" to clarify the intent of a quote; I've been burned by the work of a dastardly editor.  :)
