My point is its quite shocking to see MS post a loss. Be it Quarterly, Yearly, Daily... Whatever.

Why has me asking if this was the first ever loss turned into you going all defensive? Really. All I did was ask a Question and youre hopping around like Tigger...

Lostplanet. The new PS3 will obviously be profitable. Its tiny, cheap looking and still gonna be sold for $250+. This isnt a thread about that though...

You didn't just ask a question, you said it was a big deal.

It isn't.

Whats a big deal is Sony having 5 straight years of losses and no end in sight.

Whats big is Sony predictions for the current fiscal year already falling to shit before our eyes (that frankly stupid currency expectation is going to kill them this quarter and this year)

Whats big is that Sony are the ones the need to do something or Sony had a very real chance of not existing and yes I am serious about that.

This is a mere blip on a very positive period for MS.

 

Sony stock down 52% in the last year, MS stock up 15%

you really come off as extremely defensive in posts like this. You keep brining sony into a discussion about MS. Loss is a loss, it's not a 'positive' nor is it something they did cuz they just felt like it or anything. You keep trying to downplay this and you use sony for that. (lol at 'creating' a loss) Don't you already have like 2-3 threads you yourself made for that? Keep this on topic. The investment was a clusterfuck if it's being written off instead of being written down and that's a fact. No need to go after Carl as if he is insulting your family. It's a bad outcome but it happens with investments all the time (well maybe not of this scale but still)
