Solid - You can always look at professional estimates that are given of console costs. Some companies exist to provide teardown analysis of eletronic devices so consumers (and investors) can know if a company plans on taking a hit for each device sold. iSuppli and Morgan-Wedbush are both very informative with that.

In business, it's critical to know those kinds of things - There have always been price wars related to the loss, or profit of certain electronic devices. Remember when Atari was going to sue Sony for price dumping when the PS1 came out? How about the arguments against the Commodore 64 that there was no way it'd sell that cheap for a computer?

And of course, you can apply Moores law, and other mathematical formulas to prices and get a good idea as to what companies are paying to build devices, and get good ballpark figures even not being an analyst.

Atari are always trying to sue companys, people. If they spend that money making better products, people would buy them... simple as that.
