$99 for an X-Box 360.... Smart move? Or an act of desperation?

Wat? MS is still 7-9 billion in the hole for the X-Box brand. Not exactly somthing to brag about. At least PS3 helped Sony win a format war. Now with Apples instal base growing Google dominating search engines and Internet Exlorer losing its grip as the #1 web browser losing this console battle is sefinately not what MS needs right now.

So what if they lost money getting to this point. As a going concern/business moving forward the Xbox 360 is in a better position than the PS3. Selling consoles is good, but making money is better and the profit from here on out for the Xbox 360 will be excellent.
