The Xbox 360 has been making a profit per console sold of about $26 since 2006.  The profit may have decreased with price cuts, but I assure you, they are not losing as much as you say, if any at all.

Manufacturing costs for a PS3 are currently around $350, manufacturing costs for an XBox360 are around $250-$280.

>The following is the original teardown analysis when the PS3 launched. http://i.cmpnet.com/eetimes/eedesign/2006/chart1_111607.gif (2006)>

This breakdown was/is incorrect in many places and mirrors production costs, not manufacturing costs.
