| brainiacxiii said: FY 2011 ends in march 2012. Essentially just under two years. Some poeple seemed a bit confused. |
The general consensus, ie the majority of companies, have a fiscal year ending March 31st, and they call that by the same year it ends in (so FY2011 ends March 31st 2011) different companies have different ways of looking at it, but as the majority do it like I just said, that is what most people are talking about.
Yes Sony is unusual in that it calls the fiscal year by the year it started in, but the OP clearly didn't mean that as he used 50 million as a marker, even the most pessimistic person would say yes to the PS3 passing 50 million before April 2012,.... 1 year earlier has that glimpse of possibility that makes it threadworthy.
