If Sony wanted they could challenge microsoft in court over the xbox & win. Microsoft is subsidising the xbox, but this type of trading is illegal. Various companies have been forced in the past by fair competition laws to raise prices in order to be profitable.

An example in the UK was the BT chargecard, BT was subsidising its charge card, and was forced to raise its charges because rivals couldn't compete.

But then we are talking Bill Gates.
