You would think X1 would be higher though since there is still 600k of them sitting on shelves as of Dec 31st..

Actually no since it is $100 more expensive and still has a lingering negative public perception. Id say it is doing far better then initial expectations.

For me, the negative public perception is a myth, you don't sell 3.9M consoles at launch with bad public perception, that card is played out nowadays. I'll give on the 100 price disadvantage but for me the negative pr is very limited these days to internet forums and resolution gate wars. Spencer is doing way better then anyone else did in the past year to repair the negative PR. They did the right thing and shut Harrison up pretty good, got rid of Mattrick, Nelson is okay but is to phony looking. Penello will never catch a break and should just sit on the side lines and let others talk instead. If they can shut Greenburg up they'll be back in at 100% imo.
