It seems recently that everything they've chosen to do left Sony fans scratching their heads... rootkits? 'sploding batteries? ...mylo? the world's most expensive console game system? They're overdue a good decision. I hope they're getting back on track to the cool, cutting edge behavior they grew their rep on. Even if they're going green because it's the new black - and just doing it to be cool, it's still a good thing to do. I commute to work by train, and train tracks tend to run behind all the buildings with their glossy fronts. Urban train riders see all the ugliness of modern society, the drums of goo behind the factory, the giant landfills (kind of like huge geo-blemishes). I'm glad people are finally noticing. Even if they're doing it just to be cool. :) Thanks for the blog. I enjoyed your work @ the old job and look forward to see where you land next.
