The consoles being sold right now are still faulty. There have been tons of reports of falcon failures with the 3RROD.

They can use whatever accounting smoke and mirrors they want to create the illusion of profit. But that doesn't make it any more than an illusion.

 


Where? I haven't heard of one failure yet that was definitely a Falcon model. I'm sure a few have but I would like to see a few links (and remember that just because it has HDMI doesn't mean it's a Falcon chip).


People pull this stuff out of the air all the time.  I haven't read of chronic Falcon 360 failures either, but that doesn't mean someone won't make it up to paint the MS entertainment division in the poorest light possible.

I'm guessing their entertainment division will post a $200 m profit.  Considering the problems with Vista, I think their overall profits will likely go down from Unbelievably Obscene to just Terribly Obscene. 

 


On top of that they already set aside the money needed for rrod so won't affect anything. Seemssilly to think they will write off 1 billion every fiscal lol.
