Re: PS3 Preordering

thedaver,
and do what with the money? sony's problem isn't liquidity, it's problem is that no one wants to buy it's products anymore. the trinitron, vaio, walkmen, minidisc and cybershot lines are all struggling in the current market, and the ps3 and bluray look poised to fail miserably. sony makes it's money by being ruthlessly proprietary with it's accessories, which was fine when everyone bought sony electronics. no one buys sony anymore though.

Who knows? The point is the strategic horizon for companies is much shorter than people tend to anticipate, and I doubt many people think Sony is in any serious risk of default. The article was a worst case scenario given zero liquidity available to Sony. Obviously that's not realistic.
