Last week, I ran a race against Patrick Makau Musyoki. The race didn't have any fixed target; we were just racing to see who would get the furthest before one of us collapsed and gave up. After a few hours, Patrick has ran about 30 miles. I have ran about 20 miles. Patrick looked back and saw the 10 mile gap and he laughed at my ridiculous pace. He started to walk, then he literally stopped. At one moment, it looked like he even went in reverse a bit. But I kept going and, for a while, I was moving at a faster pace then he was (since he was walking). I got that 10 mile gap down to 8, but I don't know if I can run another 5 miles, let alone 8, before I pass out. Who knows though, maybe I'll get lucky and unlock my hidden potential and I will be able to the entire 8 miles without passing out. Maybe, maybe....
Who is winning?!? I know I'm 8 miles behind but I'm moving faster!

Except your target was who would last longer. It's not the same as who would sell the most (which would be equivalent to who ran the greater distance).
Sorry you had to waste your time and another poor analogy V_V

Read the bolded.

Ok. Isn't it obvious then? He's in the lead. And he will win if you pass out before you catch up to him. But again, it is a bad comparison. The PS3 isn't about to fade away or anything like that anytime soon.
