Playstation 3 vs. Xbox 360





Microsoft Xbox 360 -



Microsoft is positioning the Xbox 360 console as the center of a digital connected home - providing much more than just game play. The way they are talking about it, it almost seems like it could even supplanting the Media Center PC. Powered by a custom-made IBM PowerPC-based three-core chip running at 3.2GHz, and supported by 512MB of GDDR3 RAM, the new Xbox has the raw processing power to deliver more than all but the most hot-rodded PCs can today. Video and graphics performance is powered by a new ATI GPU running at 500MHz, with 10MB of embedded DRAM.









Sony Playstation 3 -



The big deal with the Playstation 3 is that it sports Sony's new Cell Processor that was jointly developed by IBM, Sony Group and Toshiba Corporation. It also features a new graphics processor (RSX) co-developed by NVIDIA Corporation and SCEI, and XDR memory developed by Rambus Inc. To really rub it in, it also adopts BD-ROM (Blu-ray Disc ROM) with maximum storage capacity of 54 GB (dual layer), enabling delivery of entertainment content in full high-definition (HD) quality, under a secure environment made possible through the most advanced copyright protection technology. To match the accelerating convergence of digital consumer electronics and computer technology, PS3 announced support for high quality display in resolution of 1080p in addition to 720p/1080i.

And also when I am searching for a simple example I was unable to find a good one that I can understand. So let me list down step by step what I have done with URLs and as simple as I can.

Assets and Liabilities as Rich Dad, Poor Dad explains

I was reading "The rich dad poor dad by Robert Kiyosaki" here is a one point that he mentions on that. Basically Asset as he says is little bit different than on books. If something puts money in your pocket it is a asset. And Liabilities are the ones that takes money out of your pocket. OK for example a house or a car may seems like an Asset but it takes money out of you pocket to maintain them. But if you rent them or make them to make money at the end of the day you can convert it to a asset. Basically that what rich people do. They buy assets. Middle class buy liabilities (thinking those are assets) and stuff (a lot of them that not used or that not needed). Lower class buy to consume (basic needs like foods).

Simple book keeping basics

What really matters are Balance Sheet and P&L (profit & loss) statement. If you really knows to read and understand these two then you know the basic language in business.  I'll go deeper on these if you guys interest or else please Google and read about these two. Let me share a real world example of what I am talking about. Here is the Access Engineering PLC / Annual Report 2015/16 http://www.accessengsl.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Annual-Report-2015-16.pdf Please go to page 149 of the report and you will see the Statement of Profit or Loss. And on page 150 of the report you see the Balance sheet (they call it as Statement of Financial Position). And you can see it is balanced (of cause it is balance sheet) Total Assets = Total Equity and Liabilities Basically these are the things that people are supposed look at before invest...
