"there will be limited change for the Surface, Xbox hardware, PPI/meetings or next generation teams."

Ok guys? Thread paranoia debunked. Move on.

Them saying hardware specifically actually just opens up a ton of more speculation.  

Actually they confirmed that the Xbox TV division is beign closed. No biggie as far as gamers are concerned. And the Halo projects are still on.

Xbox TV might not be a biggie for gamers.  What about things closer to game making and development?  Outside of saying Xbox isn't their core they remain very quiet on if they will be recieving any of those 18000 cuts. Xbox TV is only 200 ppl.
