Maybe so, but with the ultimate pr0n s(t)imulator, I could "bone" Angelina Jolie, my brain wouldn't know any different, and I wouldn't need to get any anti-STD shots or get a Q-tip jammed in my jimmy.

It amazes me that people will blow this type of money, especially considering how quick electronics fads die or become idle within a month.

I don't understand why console manufacturers don't get in on the mad profits to be made from these buffoons. The need to be the first one to beat a game (or whatever) is obviously their driving force. Manufacturers make these state of the art devices and are most definitely losing money in hopes they'll sell a huge quantity of games that are cheaper to produce. Am I right in assuming this? Even if i'm not right people are still making $5000+ profits on these machines.

If they were smart they'd make a hundred or a few thousand "limited edition" consoles. Give them a slightly upgraded drive, make the box out of chromed steel, offer the buyers a trip to the factory in Japan or some ****. Basically, a package that's relatively cheap to produce but irresistible in regards to gamer bragging rights. Put them up on a special ps3 website and let the bidding begin. These idiotic gamers would eat it up in half a second. Anyone know why they don't do this? Or are they doing something similar?

Very shrewd. This guy ought to be working for the game console companies, if he doesn't already.

Sony is not out to make quick cash, they are in it for the long haul thats why they are not making that much of a profit on the console itself. They are hoping that the money they make comes from the blu ray technology itself.
