Seems rather late. I could see investors wanting MS out of the EDD division previously but they are just starting to show some promise now, and some profit. I don't see much to be gained from pulling out now.
However I would encourage them to drop the old blades and razors model on hardware/software. Look where that's gotten Sony this gen and the same could (and has with the original Xbox) happen to MS next gen too. Heck, it remains to be seen if their profit will ever outweigh the losses already incurred in this gen.
If they continue to do Xbox business that way, they should quit, and so should Sony. Nintendo and Apple have the right idea. Sell the hardware at a profit from the start (or very close to it), even if it means less powerful hardware.
