"He continued by explaining that he’s not sure why anybody would say that Microsoft should sell their Xbox division, since that’s the only profitable part of their business."

... that's not true at all, right?


I think we can assume he is talking about the hardware business.  He isn't an idiot, he know ms makes billions upon billions each quarter.

xbox is very proftable.

live is a massive money maker, nobody else has that... as shown by the recent revelation on ps+ subscriber numbers. 

No, it's not very profitable.
