Playstation X

Hardware by Sony, Dev tools and online by MS and they both release a controller for it.

I would buy it.

Its like the Dominon War in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.

Nintendo is The Dominion, and Microsoft are the Klingons and Sony are the Romulans. They have to team up to beat The Dominion in the end, see.

Meanwhile, Valve are the Q and don't notice these wars between the lesser powers.

Sony computers already run Windows. 360 2 scheduled to run Windows 9.

Everyone using an AMD processor.

MS using Cell.

Sony calls PSN hack "a learning experience."

Sony to offer "Kinect-like" experience with PS4.

IT ALL MAKES SENSE.

If total assets is the best way to determine company size, damn your right. I'd expect a merger though.
