Wow, Sony. Sixty. The golden years. (You're not going to retire any time soon, are you? No -- good.) How far you've come since May 7th 1946, when Masaru Ibuka, post-war engineering entrepreneur and gadget forefather established Tokyo Tsushin Kogyo (Totsuko) with Akio Morita, founding the company we now know and cherish (um, most of the time) as Sony. We've seen you go through a lot of changes over the years as you've started up and shut down lines of devices, won and lost format wars, taken on board content companies, and occasionally struggled for direction in the marketplace -- but even though we dish out a lot of tough love we know someday you'll understand. Happy birthday, Sony.

^^ Happy birthday !

What an awesome company :D !

Right from the first "Walkman" to their latest stuff, I've always admired and bought Sony...
 
Me too..... I love Sony and trust them........

But I really wish they had a good solution to the ipod.... that is one market which they literally created with the walkman(portable music) and now they are nowhere there..... It is ruled by Apple, iriver and Creative..... DAMN!!

And even in the other segments(TVs), there are others now.... Hitachi and those Korean upstarts LG and Samsung.....
 
love sony, will buy sony.

atleast Tv's, walkman's, car system, and of course Sonyericsson.

happy b'day.

Sono means sound... you know that..... They named their company Sony so it would be easy to pronounce for all people. Whether in Japan or US....
 
60 years are'nt good enough, or at least a pretty odd no. of years to be marking a companies birthday. How about 75 instead?
