83 cents a share of operating income (profit). That comes out to 8.2 billion dollars! Also 26 billion in revenue, and a ton of other shit. Xbox revenue was down slightly, mainly due to lower priced HW (was $50 cheaper this holiday). You guys can look into it more if you want, but all I see is $$$.

 



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

Microsoft's market cap (its valuation on the stock market) has just surpassed 500 billion. Last time it was this high was in 1999.

It never actually got quite that high in 99 (I had shares at the time), topped out at the time just below 120 a share (equivalent of 60 a share today)
