i really hate responding to you- but can you answer this question in a real logic way.

I agree Sony has incredible marketing muscle - Let us take their roll out of PC and notebooks . The initial rollout of PC was not very successfull in the low margin high competitive market of desktops. However their recent rollout of the super slim notebooks has been HUGELY successful and now i would consider them a "player" in the notebook market ( a higher margin computer market).

Now my question is- if i was Dell, GATEWAY ,Compaq, HP . why on earth would i put a product in my computer that is made and marketed by an up and coming competitor? Especially a company that is successful in MY highest margin business.

- don't tell me how great the product is or how IOM is gonna be 2 dollars soon. just answer me that question.
