XBOX 360 outsells PS3 in the U.S.

I never realized that it was this bad for the PS3. No one expected the 360 to outsell the PS3 at this early in the game.

Nintendo's Wii led all other consoles in U.S. sales in January, according to preliminary NPD Group data released yesterday (Feb 20, 2007).
Here are the underlying NPD numbers, as cited by Microsoft:
1) Nintendo Wii: 436,000 units
2) PlayStation 2: 299,000 units (maybe Sony should stop making these)
3) Xbox 360: 294,000 units
4) PlayStation 3: 244,000 units

I have to admit, XBOX live is keeping me from my PC at the moment.

always wondered what the inter-department rivalry is inside IBM with these 2 consoles going head to head.
