Thanks John. There is an interesting article on Gamespy about sales of console game units. This is relevant to an OS oriented forum because of the underlying struggle for real estate. Both Sony and Microsoft covet the space on top of your TV. The so-called "set top box" is seen by both as the key to dominating the converging worlds of entertainment, communication and computing. Sony may or may not have stumbled onto this realization after it introduced the first PlayStation. Even if it wasn't part of a master plan, they clearly realized by 1996 that they had a great opportunity. Thus the PlayStation2 which was the first mass-market entertainment computer. The PlayStation2, Clie and Vaio are almost identical in kind even if very different in detail. | ||
