Sony has first loss in 14 yrs.

Looks like the economy is not doing too well as far as Sony goes either. They have reported their first loss in 14 years.
Doesn't sound too good for their video game stuff either. :cry:

This doesn't appear to have any long lasting effects, at least no more than it has on any other company. It just shows that no one is unaffected by this and may even humble those whose ego's are a bit higher than necessary.

I can't say it's a surprise that they would have a loss, given the economy problems and the generally high prices of many of their products. Sony is a huge company though, so I'm sure they can survive this.
