If you compare the 360 to the Xbox its done really well, particularly with the boost from the price drop.
If you compare the 360 to PS1 & Ps2 (i.e the benchmark for performance) then its not really selling that well given its mass market price and library of games. It's also inescapable that it sells less than the Wii and has a much lower LTD even with the head start.
So continued growth from MS which is of course good: but really given the billions plowed into their gaming division from the start, the paid for titles, DLC, etc. it's clear that globally MS is still a fair way off a real chance at truly massive home console sales unless it can gain much more significant boosts to average weekly sales.
Still, they could drop price further, and at least the 360 is showing a big leap from Xbox and is making money (as in current sales vs current costs, MS overall is still well in the red LTD for its entry into home consoles) and I think MS has done enough with 360 to make them a key player even if to a smaller overall number of gamers.
Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...
