I'm starting to wonder if perhaps our favorite certifiably batshit corporation is not actually poorly-run and ignorant, but trying to take the company down for tax purposes, or even some more sinister scheme. Sony bigwig Phil Harrison dropped the following bomb in German publication Der Spiegel:

We believe that the PS3 will be the place where our users play games, watch films, browse the Web, and use other [home] computer functions. The PlayStation 3 is a computer. We do not need the PC.

Harrison concluded the interview by wetting himself. He then lifted a top of the line PC (casemodded to look like a nude and oily Samus) and a box of PSP keyboards onto the table, doused them in gasoline, and lit fire to it and the German reporter. As the flames consumed them all, he laughed and gibbered maniacally, traces of blood-flecked foam slicking his cracked lips. Eliza Gauger
