I never said Sony didnt have its flaw... I was just stating why i liked them. Their not out the steal your money like MS does. Yes Sony want to make a profit like every company does, but they are willing to take a loss in the beginning and hope a return in the long run.

Microsoft follows the same business model. They posted heavy losses during the first Xbox, and more losses for the first several years of the 360.
Personally though, I don't see why bleeding money early on should make me like a company.
Sony knew the risk going into it. Im pretty sure if MS knew all the problems rrod would bring they might have waited a year.
Do you have any source for this beyond your gut instinct? And are we deliberately overlooking the shoddy hardware that are the first PlayStation and the PS2 now?
Instead they wanted market share cause they know they couldnt compete with Sony. Look at their 8 million lead they had its slowing fading. Its down to 6.5 million By this time next year Sony is real close to closing that gap.
Even if I buy all this (and I don't), I fail to see why this makes you like Sony. You hate Microsoft, cool. That's not what your own thread says it's about!
