Again, you're making a ton of assumptions based on limited data. I think if I were to dig down into your analysis, I could find deep flaws in them. I'm not going to do that because I don't think it's worthy of my free time.

Alright, no problem.

If you do, then please do point out the flaws.  I would be more than happy to change them. The goal is to have a good working model.

However, I do want to state that until someone points out a flaw(s) and fixes them with their own numbers, then it's not really very valid.

Until you work out the numbers, along with all the other figures that are connected, then changing 1 or 2 figures will not result in a more "correct" financial model.

For example:

You can't say change the X360 gross margin to $X, without changing Live gross margin to $X.  Because 1 change affects all the other numbers.

It's like a big formula:  a+b+c+d+e+g = z

You can't change a, without changing b, c, d , etc.  Given that z is fixed - ie. z is true - from reported numbers.

Thanks.
