Title: Sony to post massive losses, Selling off PC division Post by: Link41 on February 07, 2014, 11:24:33 AM http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-02-06/sony-forecasts-annual-loss-as-hirai-turnaround-stalls-on-tvs.html
I hope Sony can turn this around.

Good move IMO.

Power Book laptops are the only thing worth having.

They're simple, they work, and are hard to fuck up. I give up the ability to modify or tweak my phone for such convenience, but I would never do so with my computers.

Title: Re: Sony to post massive losses, Selling off PC division Post by: bombatomba on February 08, 2014, 12:00:26 PM Where's all the Sony is DOOMED stories? ;) It looks like everyone would rather have a go at Apple instead. After all, they're pretty much creating their own rope to hand themselves with, so it's pretty easy. :P Do we have any Everquest players here? Seems like they would be the ones sweating bullets after that announcement. Title: Re: Sony to post massive losses, Selling off PC division Post by: blcklblskt on February 08, 2014, 03:27:41 PM I'm glad Sony has finally realized it's time to spin off unsuccessful business ventures. Apparently their TV line has been losing money for the past 10 years. Sony has billions in cash, so they aren't going anywhere soon.
I'm glad Kaz has the guts to sell off business units. It seems like it is the opposite of what a Japanese executive would normally do, and I'm glad he did. Maybe they'll finally be profitable by 2016.

Vizio and Samsung keeps them cheaper

I hear you. I LOVE my Sony Bravia TV. Friends have commented on the picture quality many times, and one of them dropped massive money on an 80" Sharp. A coworker has the same Bravia TV and receives the same reaction. I could care less about the Vaio line, but the TVs must live on.
