Here's an honesty challenge for you: Use the same vitriol to describe the situation with Microsoft and the XBox. They've lost about $4 billion so far, and were hoping to finally be profitable in 2008, over six years later. Producing poorly designed, tested and manufactured 360s didn't help the picture much.
Meanwhile, Sony's gaming division losses are being cut dramatically due to much lower hardware costs and massively increased sales. The PS3 will pay off a lot faster than the XBox may eventually pay off for Microsoft. Sony's initial problem was only that the PS3 was too advanced for its time, and thus it was far too expensive to manufacture and produced sticker shock among the consumers.
Typical distraction attempt from you to change the subject, but I've never supported Microsoft entering the console hardware business and don't now. A computer can not only play games but do a lot more, and that's where Microsoft should be concentrating, on their software for computers. Using a chip that was incompatible with Windows on their console was ignorant as well. So, you failed, again.
