Gang, sorry for the delay.  This isn't the only part of my job you know!

1. As one of our news discussions last week,  Sony is in some interesting financial straits.  With the battery problems and cost over-runs of the PS3.  Sony is going to have to really get its act together.

2. Xbox Live is doing well, and has crossed the 4,000,000 subscribers mark.  Good for MS, they've been subsidizing a ton of their hard ware and their charity is beginnning to pay off.  Like I said,  MS is trying to get their stuff in everyones home, then it be Rise Of The Machines!  Bill Gates is an android afterall!

3.  We've been following this one since its release on Tuesday but Battlefiled 2142 is a bit of a Trojan Horse!  Apparantly,  in order to run it properly, a Window Security update must be disabled.  So not only is it shipped with spyware,  it exposes your computer to hackers.  YUCK! Thanks Kotoaku

4.  More postive news for old iron lady Microsoft,  they are beginning to make headway in Japan  We take for granted here that all our products are everywhere,  but sadly they are not.  MS has had an up hill struggle in Japan is finally starting to move some units in the Empire of the Rising Sun.

5.  I am all for propogating scams!  This one will help your pocket.  Half-price Xbox Live games are available if you share with a buddy!  You'll have to do some work to get the hacker discount,  but its worth a shot.
