What have Sony or Nintendo ever done to make me respect them any more than Microsoft?

Nothing.

 

RROD? What console from Nintendo or Sony have gone through such a case of shoddy tech? You must hate reliability,right?

PS2 - disc read errors affected most consoles

PSone - laser wore out meaning that you had to use the console upside down for it to work

PS3 - 2.4 bricked a lot of consoles, constantly freezes in the internet browser, hard-drive failures during installations, faulty blu-ray drives, etc.

Sure, they may not be as widespread as RROD, but that isn't the question being asked. RROD has been drastically reduced and Microsoft has handled the situation well, offering extended warranties and replacing quickly.

Compare that to the situation you're in if your 60GB PS3 bricks - a 2 month wait for a replacement.

You haven't answered what Nintendo or Sony have done to make me respect them any more than Microsoft.
