Look at all the DAMN CHEDDAR!!!   Holy shit M$ can make some cash...and there was an article a few days ago about how M$ was in danger.  What I find funny is how people love to hype Google, when they are even MORE dependent on Search for revenue, profits, and growth, as compared to M$.  With the launch of WP7 and Kinect, M$ is going to be rocking this holiday season...globally. I might be wrong, but I think Kinect is going to have a bigger dent in EMEA and Japan then many of us suspect.  As for WP7, i don't know what to make of it...M$ isn't putting alot of info and "feelers" out, and hte thing launches in 2 weeks...a bit of a head scratcher.  Regardless, this holiday season is going to see EDD post some record revenues...profits might not be as stronger, since WP7 and Kinect are going to burn alot of cash.  what I don't understand is why M$ isn't launching kinect with tons of promos, rather than spending it on advertising...seems to me if they had a initial rebate plan, like retailers have for new movies and dvds, that would go well with consumers.

Well Kinect makes a profit, and I imagin the games (which can't cost as much as your average core game) sell for full retail price.
