Did the factory workers go on strike? :) Although high, I think this is possible. Year 1 - 10 million Year 2 - 20 million Year 3 - 40 million Year 4 - 70 million Year 5 - 100 million At that point, I think investment in new plants and suppliers will end, and production will level out. I also think that with manufacturing enhancements (ie, combining chips, 65nm, etc..) the same plants will be able to produce far more consoles within 4 years. What happened on Year 3?

Year 1 - 10 million
Year 2 - 20 million
Year 3 - 40 million
Year 4 - 70 million
Year 5 - 100 million

The PS2 sold over a hundred mil right? iWould say the PS3 will at least match that over 5 years, but iThink 200 million is a little crazy. iThink the dude was just trying to have a catchy headline for his article.

It's in the forum(hint hint) for anyone that needs reminding. Like I said in the forum I doubt that very much. They probably think the addition of the Blu-Ray drive will boost sales massively. Maybe it will but 200m!! Phhht. Isn’t that not similar to what researcher Envisioneering Group predicted (200m units sold in 5years)? It’s in the forum(hint hint) for anyone that needs reminding.
