He hires the best people and then he lets them do their jobs and, here's the real kicker that shows you what bad managers most American business schools produce (other than my alma mater of course!): he gives them the *time* to get it right! Wow! What a concept.

The real question is why did Sony--one of the most experienced and monstrous consumer products companies in the history of the world--totally blow it here?
|
they sort of invested a few hundred million dollars into a development of this thing called a cell processor, could it be that they simply could not commit as much money to the project as Apple does?

Buffy, it couldnt be a dumber idea, take a computer, put weird system on it, a decent graphics card, write a few games for it and say its a new gaming console... PS3 is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaay more innovative, better built, higher benchmarked, with a better concept in their minds, new processor architecture, better, specially built graphics chipsets, overal a much, much better gaming platform, and dont look at the games that it will come with, what i reaaly want to see is the next gran turismo to actually be able to judge how good the console will be, and i mean GT6 not 5, 5 is being developed without truly knowing the power of the soon to come out console, engine is still from GT4
