so 2.57 - Zune losses for 4 years (BIG! Would be very surprised if this is less than 1 billion) - Windows Mobile losses (don't know how big though) +/- Mac Office (tiny profit or loss)

besides that MS reported a 312 million profit in the EDD for the past 3 months. (Q1 2010) 
And the next 3 months gonna be good as well, because of Forza 3, Halo ODST as first party titles
and Assassins Creed II, Modern Warfare 2, Left 4 Dead 2 and GTA IV DLC pack as 3rd party titles.

And Xbox Live fees probably saw a boost as well, because of MW II and the new update.

 

As I stated above the loss is 3.2 billion since 2006.  I know this has been discussed before, the EDD includes all MS Office, MS Vista, MS Windows 7, and Windows XP software sold at retail.  It also includes MS Games for Windows sales.  The truth is we will never really know how much money the Xbox brand makes or loses because the data is lumped together.

Edit: It is a 2.57 billion dollar loss.
