So basically all 3 companies focus more on Europe because they make more money because the Europeans are screwed as usual with their strong currency...

I don't really know. I'm 63 and for almost six decades I was taught that a strong dollar was a really good thing, a really important thing, almost a religious thing. Right up until we didn't have it; and suddenly I was told that it was a bad thing because it discouraged trade.

Where do you think Microsoft and Sony learned to spin the facts to make bad seem good and good seem bad?

It being good or bad basically depeneds on how it effects your purchasing power. I mean the Kuwait dollar is the most valuable currency in the world and has been for ages... but it's all relative. I mean, 1 dollar in California isn't exactly equal to 1 dollar in ohio. It's kinda similar world wide, except not only does the "area" value differ but the "real" value differs as well.

Also, i'm not so sure what's partisan about why the economy is screwed up. Hiding from minor currency depression and wastefull spending is a bipartisan effort that finally caught up to us.
