Even if the $18 is correct, that doesn't mean they are losing $18 per console. It means that material cost of the console is $18 higher the MSRP. Sony's loss is much greater than that as each consoles also has retailer margin, shipping, and FTE costs associated with it. Using your $18 as the base. Then Sony is probably losing 18 + 15-30 for retailer margin + 3-5 for shipping + FTE costs (maybe $5-10)
