Sony is the largest electronics manufactureres in the world. They are among the Worldwide Top 20 Semiconductor Sales Leaders. Added to their stature they are contracting manufacturing of the PS3 to other factories. What do the numbers say? In 2006 MS revenue was 44 billion while sony's was 68 billion. I would probably go out on the limb here to say, maybe they can achieve these numbers.
Static, Do you know the difference between revenue and net income ? Revenue is "gross" income. When you deduct the various production costs to revenue you obtain "net" income. Well Sony has huge revenue but how many of this money they really "put in bank" ? Very few ... Here 2006 fiscal year ( actually early 3 fiscal quarters ) : Microsoft MSFT ( whole company not only MGS ) : $44.3 billion revenue, $12.6 billion income Sony SNY( whole company not only SCE ) : $63.9 billion revenue, $0.001 billion income Nintendo NTDOY : $4.3 billion revenue, $0.84 billion income Sony is a giant with weak legs.
