Could be their numbers are out of date, but it seems its just wrong (no offense), because Greenburg recently said xbox are at 45mil (or 44) cant remember.

Maybe they're discounting the consoles dead by 3RLs.

But i mean how will they determine which users have bought duplicate consoles, and the RRODs is much higher than 2 or 3 million, its estimated at min about 40% of xbox consoles and at max about 66% of xbox consoles. so it still seems a big high imo.

anyway this dosent matter to me, microsoft considers all those 45mil consoles sold, and imo they are sold even if they're duplicate buys, people still chose to buy them despite the hardware failure. and imo PS3 will outsell the 360 when the time is right, and will outsell them despite all those duplicate buys because of RROD.

One your estimates are way high.  Two MS does not include in shipment numbers any new units (if any) that they would send out to replace any RRoD units. The amount of people that simply chose to replace rather than get a console fixed has to be pretty small when the warranty for RRoD has been very lenient.   The only Xbox RRoD I have occurred happen 3 months after the extended warranty expired and MS still fixed for free.
