Steve - RE: "indeed it was a hoax sir!"

I can't believe that ON24 website did a report on that ZDNet article! The ZDNet article said the supposed PS3 was going to come out in April of next year or the year after and that AMD publically demoed a 2GHz chip. Those two clues were such big tips the article was a joke, but the ON24 guys got suckered in! Sony has even said they hope the PS2 lasts a few years but those ON24 people probably wanted "in" on the scoop. Instead, they threw a pie in their own face!

These ON24 people should have stricter standards if they want people to listen to their broadcasts. I have listened to a few and all they do is regurgitate what has already been written about either the day or a few hours before. They should stick to interviewing analysts because that is what they do best.
