Sony has a consumer electronics division AND a games division. They are NOT one in the same. Bloomberg very clearly states that the funds will likely find their way into the Consumer Electronics (Bravia) and Games Division (PS3).

Yes, it's one and the same. Perhaps you should look up the definition of division and figure out that the company is devised into several electronics divisions (tv's, radios, etc etc) All of those are referred to under the same name, and collected in one whole part. Financial analyst means someone who makes assumptions, in this case even without some real evidence. Funds will likely find their way into, means "we are just guessing, but it must be true without having any hard solid evidence to back it up"
You sure are no accountant, if you were you would have known that the financial loss of the console is not necessarily that off the entire division, that's why my second link gave you almost all numbers and not just some digit on a web page, figure it out yourself and if you don't know anything about numbers then don't judge them. Just look at the numbers and the good ones this time! There is never enough profit for a company with shareholders and all projects that will continue to make a loss will be sold or aborted. In my search I even came across a bunch of links that said the original xbox would make a profit before the end of 2004, lmao, they never made a dime on that one.
The failure rate is taken from a survey amongst retailers and customers and not from MS of course. Ms will never really admit to rates of failure being high or issues with software (vista anybody?) or anything like that.
Wikipedia technical issues link.
30% failure rate link.
Google for the rest of the digits yourself, also the number of reports on broken 360's have risen dramatic since Bioshock was released. Users simply went on gaming for hours and hours on end, and with that overheating their 360.
Fanboys surely are people who trust in any speculation without being able to judge numbers themselves or interpreted them. Your just grasping at straws here and don't even have the decency of saying my other figures about console sales or games that are released a year after the launch of the 360 are true. You are the definition of a fanboy that has spend way too much time powerleveling in Azeroth and thinks he knows all about the changed market upon his return. You missed a shitload on info while playing with your guild and completely dissapearing from GH.
That being said, I know we both disagree on many things, right now as we have done in the past and most likely will always continue to do so, but I'm glad you came back from that time, money, life and mind absorbing game you old demented geezer
