No, no they didn't. Some random group theorized they were breaking even. Sony had no official statement on their stance. Furthermore, the last intereview i saw was that they planned to break even mid 2009.

Business week is not some random group. The PS3 has been breaking even for a month now.

it is just an estimate... from some group with no real info

if you believe them you can also look here http://nexgenwars.com/

But at the same time, we don't have conclusive evidence pointing contrary to the rumor either. We do know that almost all the component's that make a PS3 have shrunk in dye size and cost, and we know that Sony is notoriously amazing for getting the cost of their units down. I have little reason to believe they're not breaking even. Esepecially with so many major players comming up in 08, I'm expecting another price drop sometime soon.

They also had a profitable quarter, which many people did NOT predict. More PS3's sold at a loss doesn't add up for gains in their gaming devision.
