While Things Are Improving, The Playstation 3 Hardware Refuses To Become Profitable For Sony.

Sony has always lost money on the Playstation 3. But things are slowly starting to improve. Sony CFO Nobuyuki Oneda noted recently that the PS3’s cost is still 10 percent higher than the system’s price meaning about $40 are lost per system sold.

Things used to be a lot worse, with the system losing around $100 per sale, so progress is definitely being made. Of course, a price-cut of any kind could literally off-set that once again.

Ah well. Keep chugging on Sony.

    Well, i wonder how much is the excate amount of each console, as when the 60Gb version came out, that seemed vert expansive and thought they were recovering every expense towards the technology.
