| 13% offloaded seems a bit drastic to e. I thoguht PS2 and the Tv's were doing well. Sony overestimating their sales possibly also to blame? | |

| I too hate job cuts, but I used to sell electronics and would always get annoyed when people would by things just because they said Sony on them, regardless if it was the best product or not. I would be suspicious that Sony was banking on cornering more of the electronics field than they possibly could have, and that in some way or another caused them to over-spend on something. Even though I don't like cuts, and I love PS and PS2, I would most like to see other companies not get swallowed up by Sony. The video game systems, by the way, are the only Sony things that I by. | |

Considering on how much into the electronics industry they're in, I'm surprised the PS2 (and whatever that other thing is) alone could cause something this massive. | |

Article in the Daily Record (-a scottish Tabloid Newspaper.-) i read this morning balmed the lack of foresight into LCD TV's, downturn in Mobile/Cellular phone industry, and, er, Jennfier Lopez and Ben Affleck. Hey, if we need a sacrificial lamb or two, theres yer humans. Kill em both!  | |

| their ps2 sales arent that bad, they are whooping xbox and gamecube... its just sony always over estimates, if they didnt have such a huge ego they wouldnt be having this problem. :\ Moderator Edit See, this is the kind of thing we've been talking about in the swearing topic in comm/sugg. There was no real need to swear in this post, but swear he did. -R51 | |
