Actually that whole "sold at a loss" bit was an accusation, a but of FUD really, made by Atari against Sony when the Playstation came out at remarkably cheaper than Atari's Jaguar. What Atari failed to realize is that their supplier was still charging them the same price for RAM 2 years after the DRAM prices dropped so dramatically in the mid-90's. So the Playstation could be manufactured for significantly less than expected.
