Second: $300 in 2000 dollars is the equivalent of $389 in 2008 dollars, adjusted for inflation. So the launch PS3 was a bit higher than its predecessor, but not a huge leap beyond affordability.

Unless you're a few years out of college or got yourself a steady income, the difference between $389 and $600 is no small gap.... Especially when you throw in $60 games, $40 controllers and $30 blu ray movies.

I do get what you're trying to say though.

 I agree, thats a lot of money, even if you are making 20$ an hour thats still like a weeks worth of pay, and it would take me an entire month to be able to afford a Ps3 at launce, assmuming i didnt pay for gas, car insurance, food, repair bills ect.
