A high attach rate would seem to be normal given the high end price. Lower the price and the rate will go down. I still see no connection, just an explanation.

That's exactly how I feel. They are not establishing a connection at all. They wrote that article 2 months too soon, as they shouldn't spout their mouths till after the holiday season, at which time they'll have actual real hard numbers to use in their analysis. I see their explanation, but I really fail to see how the numbers connect with each other. At a price tag of $200 below the PS3, they just might have a lot more money for buying games.
