  9. PS3 business model vs. Phone business model on Sony Encourages Linux On Their Phones · · Score: 1

    With the PS3 Sony was heavily subsidizing the GPU hardware expecting the sale of software titles to recoup the amount they were losing per PS3 sale. Along comes the world and makes PS3 systems into clusters that will never be accompanied by the purchase of a game and Sony starts bleeding cash.

    With the phone there is no subsidized GPU and therefore no loss when Linux is used on the phone. In fact selling them as a Linux platform will mean more paying customers.

  21. The Customers Want the Sites Not Sprint or Cogent on Behind the Cogent-Sprint Depeering · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Sprint customers are buying access to sites on Cogent.

    Nobody buys a Sprint or Cogent connection to get to Sprint or Cogent. They want the data from the content provider sites (pr0n and http://archive.org/ ).
    Therefor Sprint is really profiting on people's desire to get to sites inside Cogent. If they cut off those sites people will drop them and get somebody else
    who provides the access.
