I'm baffled! I just totally don't understand the point of this at all! And in addition to that, people actually rated this item! Someone please explain

I told my dad about this and he knows the company IDC who released this... Still, this just doesn't make sense to me.

I downloaded the article after a frantic search on the internet for random information brought on by a 3 day cocaine binge, and from the minute my eyes caught the first words I was hooked. The information is essentially data accompanied by extensive analysis. Seems rather simple. But the article as a whole is more like a story, the kind you wished your father had read to you when you were a kid instead of that daily grind of molesting you then tucking you in.

:lol:

I can't believe it's only one page. two pages I could see, but one page.......no way buddy.

It's a research report - it is targeted towards people who are more interested into what caused the delay as opposed to those who play its games. Consulting firms get paid a lot of money to go through and write a detailed report on why something failed in a company.

EDIT: It could be a really HUGE 1 page :beam:

It reveals a huge business plan that Sony used and their reasonings on why they didn't release the PSP during Christmas. The author is a professional and all she does is release this kind of information on the gaming industry.
