All eyes are on Sony -- or, more likely, on its PlayStation home video game systems, which account for nearly 10% of the electronics and entertainment giant's sales. Sony, the world's #2 consumer electronics firm, after Matsushita, also makes a host of other products, including semiconductors, DVD players, batteries, cameras, MiniDisc and Walkman stereo systems, computer monitors, and flat-screen TVs. The company's TVs, VCRs, stereos, and other electronics products account for more than 60% of sales. Sony's entertainment assets include Columbia TriStar (movies and TV shows) and record labels Columbia and Epic. The company also operates insurance and finance businesses.
