Like others have said they lump it in with the Entertainment and Devices division which is a bit of a pain. There is a chart I will post if I can find it detailing all the loses and profits since the Xbox launched.

178M$ in one quater ... with another 3 quaters to go + christmas M$ could be seeing profits of over 1 billion for the E&DD

 

I think that's a tad too high. A 25% increase from last year would land them below 750M$...

Think about the rate at which people are picking up Xbox 360's this christmas compared to last, think of all those live subscriptions, and the millions upon millions of more games being sold.

 

December 7th 2007 - 3,636,865 Games sold

December 5th 2008 - 5,418,421 Games sold

 

With massive price cut.

Correct me if I am wrong but wasnt the price cut as follows:

Arcade from $279.99 to $199.99 - a $80 cut

Pro from $349.99 to $299.99 - a $50 cut

Elite from $449.99 to $399.99 - a $50 cut

Why is this massive?
