Wow, MS is acting like every other US company, heck even certain parts of the US states and national governments are on hiring freezes at the moment.

The world economy is going to hell, everyone knows this and now isn't the time to look like a company with "good growth" prospects but rather a company who isn't bleeding money to help keep your stock from sinking even further.

I think MS is cutting back because the new 360 models now have enough chocolatey goodness that they want to focus on that division being in the black.  And the Zune is likely dragging that division down hard, too.
