    Company »

    Since its 1946 founding, Sony has risen from an innovative Japanese electronics company to one of the leading mass media conglomerates around. Like its movie studio and music biz sister-corps, the SCEI divisions (and the PlayStation family) have been huge successes for Sony and its brand recognition worldwide.

    Gentlemen (and Ladies),

    Sony, the greatest tech company story of the past couple decades, plans to be number three in the cellphone market after Samsung and Apple.

    But that's not it! Long term dreams are to buy out Apple or Samsung. Now, we all have dreams...my dream is to one day buy a GT-R before I hit 30 (which is just a couple years left /sadface).

    Samsung is a good buy, a fantastic buy but there is no way in fucking hell anytime in the next 5 years Sony will ever be able to come near to buying Samsung.

    As for Apple, come on. There is only one company Apple is scared of and that company has the information of almost every person in America, plus they make tasty sounding mobile OS names!

    To be honest Tadashi Suzuki did say it was a dream and no where near possible in Sony's current state, and he does say it sucks not having this a realistic possibility. But still, it's good to know even the high ups at Sony have dreams.

    It just goes to show you how bad Sony fucked up in the 2000s when they let not one but two tech companies take full control of the industry. And again, to be honest...Microsoft and every other tech company fucked up predicting Apple and Google's impact.

    @winternet: You gotta admit, if you're going to dream you might as well go all the way. Still, how the fuck did Sony fuck up so bad the last few decades. They fucked up so bad they let Koreans take over most their markets. Even funnier hearing this after both Gabe and Microsoft said Apple/Google are the biggest threats to them.

    But hey, when your company is failing on all ends it's good to have a dream that will never be reachable.

    Having a dream is good, but sometimes there are dreams you need to wake from.
