As long as they make a PS4, and make awesome first party games.

Am I reading correct they actually wanted to knock it down with more then 1 grade?

However, we base our one-notch downgrade on our view that Sony's profitability and financial standing will gradually recover in fiscal 2012 because there will be no repeat of one-off expenses due to floods in Thailand and impairment losses on stockholdings.

Well, yeah. If another natural disaster appears.

Major suckage. But that's how the market works.

Yesterday I went to buy a new TV for my bedroom and it is unbelievable how expensive Sony TVs are, even for brazilian standards. Went with an LG 50' instead, and Philips for the HT. BTW I couldn't even look to Sony's HT offerings without thinking "dying company". I wonder if Apple will make us feel the same towards Nintendo and Microsoft a few years from now?

Anyways, thanks VGC =/

Sony to do good in the TV-business is like Xbox360 needs to seill 10 million in Japan...

but didnt Sony did the first step and let Samsung now manufact their TVs?

Kaz has already made a lot of progress on the TV front. He slashed their project sales from 40 million to 20 million, getting rid of the LCD manufacturing partnership with panasonic, forcing the electronics department to adopt a "build what we can sell" idology. He also seems to have a reasonable viewpoint on state of the TV business asiming to cut its losses in half in fiscal year 2012-2013 and generate a small profit in 2013-2014.

Before Kaz the TV business just did its own thing and it seems like Sir Howard Stringer spent his time on goals for the company as a whole instead of forcing changes within un-profitable departments.

Don't get the point of this, are you complaining about the topic?

not good
