Summary: Microsoft took out a debt of 3.75 billion dollars because interest rates are so low. They stated that this is intended to be used for acquisitions.
However, this is Microsoft as a whole, not the Xbox division. There is a 95%+ chance this is intended for other fields, like application software or Internet opportunities (e.g. Facebook).
