        Sony is in talks to sell its troubled personal computer business and Thursday lowered its earnings forecast for the business year ending March to a 110 billion yen loss ($1.08 billion).索尼公司将出售债务累累的个人电脑业务，并且于周四宣布2013财年（2013年4月1日- 2014年3月31日）预计将出现1100亿日元(约10.8亿美元)的亏损。
        The company also said it's cutting its global workforce by about 3 percent or 5,000 people by the end of March 2015 as it restructures its PC, television and other businesses. Some 3,500 of the job losses will be overseas and 1,500 in Japan.鉴于个人电脑业务、电视业务和其他业务的重组，索尼公司还宣布将在全球裁员5000人，计划于2015年3月前完成。在计划裁员的5000人中，3500人为海外员工，1500人为日本员工。
