Wii outsold 360 in less than a year since release and 360 has been out since 2005.
360 numbers are based on units shipped which also include the 33% of all units suffering Red ring of death and all the 4 out of nine units suffer from disc scratching. Ps3 numbers of 5.5 miilion only reflect units sold by march 2007. 5.5 million units in only six months since release is more then half of what Microsoft shipped in 2 years and when you take out the replacements for red ring of death etcc... in only 6 months the ps3 has actually sold about 75% of what 360 did in two years. Not bad I'd say. Especially since microsoft had to stop releasing regular xbox games so people would be forced to buy 360s and Sony is still releasing ps2 consoles and games with no worries.
2500 360s are sent back to Microsoft a day for repairs from the UK alone for the Red Ring Of Death. People are also forgetting that the 360 scratches discs as well and Microsoft in the Netherlands is just replacing the 360s to netherland customers instead of trying to fix them because there is no real fix. Many electronics repair companies won't even handle the 360s anymore because once one thing is fix something else goes wrong.
It wasn't until the Lawsuit filed in Florida in June of 2007 that also sought class action statis that microsoft decided to entend the warranty to 3 years.
Sales Numbers? They Are seriously skewed when you factor in all the replacements on a daily basis that are shipped. I'd actually like to see how many household actually have a 360.

It does come across as something antagonistic though. The PS3 isn't actually selling badly. It beat the Wii on weekly sales in Japan last week and Sony plan to sell 11 million by the end of March 2008, it took the 360 almost 2 years to sell this amount.
EDIT The reason that the 360 doesn't sell in Japan is because apart from Blue Dragon it doesn't have many games aimed at the Japanese market. Even if it did it wouldn't dominate considering it would still have competition and all the hardware problems it has got and there are still more games that appeal to the Japanese on other consoles. The only reason the 360 sold is because it was the first one out and because of Halo 3. Now PS3 and Wii are out and Halo 3 is out there's not much going for it.
Why would you want it to dominate? What does it matter to you which console is in the lead? The only answer to this is that you're another annoying fanboy.
Market analysts agree that the PS3 will quickly catch up with if not surpass the 360 in sales. In the meantime we've got Uncharted, MGS4, Killzone 2 and Final Fantasy XIII. How does that make you feel?

How has the PS3 been beaten by a little kids console and a Red Ring of Death Xbox 360? It hasn't been beaten. The PS3 has only been out for a year, and it's too early too even tell who has beat who.
Well, if you say that the PS3 has been "beaten" by the Xbox 360 and the Wii, then the Xbox 360 has been beaten by the Wii also, because it has sold more consoles than the Xbox 360.
As far as I'm concerned, the PS3 hasn't been beaten by any other inferior console out on the market and it wont be. The PS1 was the first console ever to sell over 100 million units, the PS2 sold over 100 million units in about 6 years, and the PS3 is headed for the same direction.

How much longer have they been out???
also, being delayed twice didn't help PS3s credibility.
But now, the triple has better multimedia systems, better graphics and better games
