The Microsoft EED posted a profit this quarter ~ $160million nad that $1.1billion is pretty much all forgotten, 

What's more telling is that Those Sony losses aren't just for the PS3, but the whole gaming division which means All the fat profits Sony are milking from the PS2 and PSP are being absorbed into the massive losses of the PS3.

Where the hell are you getting $480M from?! 96 Billion Yen is $840M The X360 is losing money, too but no need to be a fanboy and obscure the facts. They're BOTH money losing dogs.

Hi, just to say that you used a pic from the Dell Laptops on these one!!! [Yeah, they were Sony manufactured batteries though.... Ed.]

The PS3 losses amount to about $480 million.

Compare that to the 360's $1.1 Billion reserve for repairs, and the $6 Billion todate that the Xbox division has lost, and Sony looks in reasonable shape.

The 1/4 shipments of 1.3 million PS3's is also quite tidy, considering it's traditionally a "lull" quater, and this coming quater will be much more specataculr, what with Xmas, and the PS3 new pricepoint.

Still nice job Inquirer of putting your usual Sony hate spin on things. [We hate no-one and everyone. Ed.]
