It was a decent read, but it starts to come apart in the last pages, the ones most people would be most interested in that haven't followed Kutaragi's career more closely. For example it mentions his being removed from the board after it mentions the PS3 price drop and friction with Stringer; this is reverse ordering. And although mentioning he was made head of electronics and and semiconductors for awhile, it doesn't mention that he was the one to push Sony in the direction of LCD technology vs CRT - a key strategic move that has really saved Sony in the TV space.

Ah well, at least the articles heart was in the right place... thanks for the link Z! :)
