EA too? Say it Ain't So.

As if we weren't already aware the economy is at a downturn, need we be reminded by respected companies in their industries laying off their headcount?  These are sad times.

EA, aka Electronic Arts has always been a top dog in the gaming niche and we've come to learn recently that they too, have had to make some company adjustments in current conditions.   They've laid off 600 people, http://kotaku.com/5071439/electronic-arts-laysoff-six-hundred for more info.

In this economic decline, I've always thought it was safer to assume the booming industries like video gaming wouldn't have to resort to these measures.  I guess that goes to show, assumption is still the mother of all eff-ups and we should be on guard at all times.
