I sincerely hope Sony didn't lose too much money on the PS3 Slim launch.

I think the increased software should take care of that ;)

Where are reports of those?

And so what? They lost over $3 billion from relying on software before. Relying on it still is part of the bad idea I mentioned.

No, you are very wrong. They didn't rely on SW at all. They knew they'd take a huge hit initially. They were relying on not needing to drop the price right away. They were losing about 300 dollars per system at the begining. That would mean if they were relying on SW then the average user would need to buy like 11 first party titles to make up the loss.

There is also a huge difference between losing 300 like at the begining and taking a slight loss right now. Kaz even said with SW and periphrials they are profitable. And the way he worded could mean just the PS3 SW and periphs.
