So,what does that all basically mean?

It means MS spent $2.1 billion to make $1.7 billion in revenue from Xbox, meaning that they lost $400 million last FY13/14 from the Xbox platform (XB1 and X360). Now given that X360 would be profitable during that period, the loss must come from the XB1, so in essense the loss due to XB1 is $400 million plus whatever profit X360 brought in during that period.

Exactly, basically unhappy shareholders are still unhappy with Xbox. Although, that hasn't changed since the original Xbox launched.
