The PS3 might be expensive for SONY: "

Source : http://www.gamekult.com

According to a Japanese newspaper, the PS3 might cost quite some money to SONY, especially for its official launch. Indeed, the original target price was 337Euros in Japan, but the real cost could be 70Euro higher. The reason is linked to the price of high-tech or high-end components such the Cell processor and the Blu-Ray drive.

A projection is evaluating the deficit for the first year to almost 1 billion Euros.

Game console are systematically sold to their production price or even lower (so no profit), manufacturers earn money thanks to game licenses, then later on to the decrease of components price due to large volume productions and availability. For example, the PIII in the current Xbox3 is not costing more than its current production cost.

However, the competition with the Xbox360 could challenge the financial plan built by Sony for its PS3 launch.

For sure, end-users, the customers, will profit from this already announced price fight between the future next generation game consoles. Evaluating the price of the game for each console will also later on give information regarding the price that game developers will have to pay to get a license.

How Microsoft Will Die

Longhorn, by the features
WFS: Cut
.NET Framework: Cut
MONAD: Cut
Integrated Search: Cut
Avalon: Who knows?
Indigo: Who knows?
IE7: You can repaint a Kia, lower it down, put rims on it and think you are cool, but at the end of the day it is still a Kia.
And so it goes, on and on. Feature after feature is cut, promise after promise is broken, and what do we have at the end of the day? XP SP3. If Microsoft fails to deliver something approaching decent with Longhorn then they will be in trouble. Big trouble. And most people haven’t even realized this yet. But they will soon enough.

A Video Uploader for the rest of us

As a Mac user, my heart sank a little when I first saw the post about the Google Video Upload Program. Clearly, the concept is cool. It was just that all-too-ubiquitous .exe file you must run to upload your videos. Of course I know that something like 90% of the desktop/notebook computers sold today run Windows. But in my circle of friends (admittedly a small one -- I blame the caffeine), almost everyone uses a Mac, and the rest use Linux or some other UNIX-like substance. Anyhow, this Video announcement inevitably led to a lot of flak (again) from my friends about how Google was shipping yet another Windows-only application. "I thought Google has lots of smart developers." "Doesn't Google know how to write platform independent software?" Blah, blah, blah.

But this time, I took it as a personal challenge. I shoot a lot of video, and I edit it on my Mac. How hard could it be to write a compatible video uploader that would run everywhere? As I soon discovered, not very hard at all. After all, I have access to the C++ source code for the existing Windows-specific uploader, and I can spend my 20% time working on whatever I want. And I have plenty of experience writing portable code, given that I program in Java.

Java comes pre-installed on the vast majority of operating systems in use today, or it's available as a free download from Sun. And software written in Java really, really does work across all those platforms, as a decade of work by software developers can attest. The Java mantra "Write once, run anywhere" is a reality -- it just works. Java programs also tend to be less buggy than their C/C++ counterparts, and programmers working in Java are a lot more productive - but these are topics for another post.

Anyway, now you can sign up for the Google Video Uploader for Macintosh, and ditto for Linux (and UNIX and Solaris and HP-UX and AIX and lots of other platforms). The same sign-up page goes to to the Windows version too. So now I can ponder a different problem - namely, which of my videos I want to share with the world.
