You started this chain of debate by saying that the Xbox 360 was not profitable. Where is your proof that the actual console itself is unprofitable? The point is that the data is deliberately obfusicated so that you cannot easily tell what is causing the profit and loss situation. The information that Microsoft has given indicates that the Xbox 360 is a significant proportion of revenue moreso than costs in the structure of the EDD when you do the math on 'the Xbox 360 revenue increased by X% in Y$ vs A% and B$ costs'.
Tease.
