(1)Until there is actual solid evidence that the PS3 and its production process can generate a product that sells at a profit on the market, these claims don't amount to much in terms of specifics. This could just be any number of PR spins on the situation.

I know that sounds non-specifically fanboyish, but its a simple fact. Sony's top priority is making the PS3 look like something that is worth investing in and will last, and they will say whatever they must and frame the picture however is needed to create the image. Announcements like this are made specifically to seduce investors not gamers.

Hmmm, sounds more like youre tryingdeny the possibility.

I question aswell how the 360 division can achieve profit with the continuate repairs of the broken console they recieve, the extended 3 year warranty, the need to compensate with free games etc. .Such choices should definitely lower the optimal profit for Microsoft's game division aswell, and gain the great profit that some easierly choose to believe.

But hey!... you can chose to believe whatever you want. 

You're right, the RRoD warranty really hurt MS's profitability. Microsoft took a $1 billion hit for extending the warranty to three years.  http://www.news.com/2100-1014_3-6195058.html

That $1 billion will cover repairs and replacements for all RRoD defects.
