Sony to spin off 4 divisions

The word is out that Sony is spinning off 4 divisions. And a quick look at them makes you wonder what they were thinking when they got into these businesses in the first place. For what they ever had to do with the Sony brand is anyone's guess.

The four businesses are importer-retailer Sony Plaza Co, cosmetics maker B&C Laboratories Inc, French-restaurant chain Maxim's de Paris Corp, and mail order firm Sony Family Club Inc.

I guess chopping these took Howard Stringer exactly three minutes to figure out.
