Actually no, I answered your post as soon as I read it, then I read the other ones.

But the initial point on this argument of price is stand alone. PS3 launching for 399 would win the gen, the fact that Sony would go under pertains to the cost to make the units not to the price sensitiveness of the market.

The PS3 launching at that price would force Sony to kill the machine and relaunch with something that wouldn't cripple the company.

Be realistic if you're going to do classic comparisons. Don't hit people with ifs and buts.

Still that wasn't the argument he was making on that point and strictly on price point he wasn't being ridiculous to infer that at the right price PS3 would win. And changing BD to DVD and Cell to common architeture wouldn't make PS3 less PS3, because the SW would still come similarly.

BD and Cell were a bad gamble on the cost reduction perspective.
