Their operating loss stand at $841 million so far, but the figures aren' t as bad as they look because up until recently is was pretty stupidly priced. This quarter will be better, but PS3' s still trailing what PS2 sold in the same timeframe by about 1.5 mil.

Interesting comparison... I only wonder what kind of sales figures developers are going to want to see over this holiday season in order to retain confidence in the platform. The PS3 could still be viable even in third place, if it' s not a distant third place. This is a really critical time period and the price drop wasn' t a moment too soon.
