I think an Xbox 360 price cut is far, far more likely

People that continue to bring the investor part into the mix really show they have no clue about the subject.  These investors have always been there on MS board with no real pull to make any changes within the company because they have less than 1% interest.  These investors are always the ones who are looking to cash and burn for greater dividend on their stocks and care little about long term plans, investment or even position of the company.

There was a push by one large group to get 1% interest in the company and failed, so their words continue to fall on deaf ears.  Hell, there are investors on Sony board that requested them to spin off the PS division, how likely do you think thats going to happen.  People need to stop throwing out the investor part because it has as much weight as a PS fan asking MS to spin off the Xbox division.


By that you mean the board of directors? The board members represent not only their own interests, but those of institutional investors that make up a significant portion of company ownership. That makes up far more than 1% my friend. These are also top-brass in the company -- what they say, do, and think naturally becomes what the rest of the company will say, do, and think. Ballmer was one of the champions of the Xbox brand, but he's no longer CEO.



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016
