That is for me a hint of humility from Ballmer, which is a first... Look at all apple Apple product that failed in the past and the way they've turned it into a success today, ipad is just a Newton turned into what it is now. Somebody tells Microsoft to get their R&D to switch the R to Release, because they have a few winning products too.

PlayStation Network Expanding To Involve Other Devices 63

Posted by Soulskill on Thursday January 07, 2010 @03:44AM from the making-toasters-smarter dept.

At CES, Sony's Kaz Hirai confirmed that the company will build out its PlayStation Network for use with other devices, such as televisions, Blu-ray players, and PCs. Quoting: "... the expansion starts next month with the availability of the PSN video store on these other devices, and Hirai explained they are constructing a mechanism to create a single user ID across the entire network (if you have a PSN account, it's good to go on any other applicable Sony device, and if you create one on another device, it'll work on PSN). And finally, Hirai also announced the formation of a new Sony division — called Sony Network Entertainment, Inc. — to drive this expansion of the PSN service into a Sony-wide network."

Isn't war part of the US economy ? The US became the first economic worldwide power thanks to war in the first place... What would be the other reason why they'd go to war so systematically ? Nobody will be able to convince me : "You cannot impose democracy" even when you use it as a pretext to something else (petrol anyone ?).
