But it is all just so much theoretical discussion if nobody can  
actually get their hands on one. The numbers Sony is shipping are  
just plain silly. It is PR, not marketing IMHO.

I think they took lessons from ATI on how to publicize incredible  
numbers and then never actually ship units in quantities that let  
anyone actually buy them.
