"we're very profit driven, we're interested in return on investment in a fairly short period of time."

So is Microsoft Tretton, and it's worked, the 360 hardware started making a profit from 2007.

O Rly?  Where'd you read this?  Can I have a link from a respected source?  The only things I've read lately are that they lose money on every console, just like SONY.  I have to call bull shit.

That is three years old. When that article was written, they still had the 360 Core for $300. Now, the 360 Arcade is $200. $100 cheaper, and with more features. When the Elite launched a few months after that article was written, it was $480. Now, it's $300.

and Microsoft havn't reducded costs at all in 3 years?

I'm sure they have. But they may not have reduced costs by $100.
