SONY: "We want our next system to perform noticeably better than the last one we put out."
People: "Yep. They're gonna throw away tons of money again."
I don't see why this is the automatic conclusion... They're profiting on the PS3 right now selling at $250. Who's to say they can't make a profitable $400 console that yield better performance?
Building something to be sold at $250 today would out perform something built to be sold at $250 6 years ago by a fuck ton. Think about that.
