And X1 below 100k just like I said it would. I remember someone telling me it'd be a long time before that happened, yet here we are (wish I could remember who).

I expect the X1 to jump around, probably climb up through the holidays before it absolutely crashes in January. After that crash, it won't recover until either a price cut or Halo 5. It'll have a sub 60k baseline for most of 2015.

I was actually surprised that the X1 has already fallen below 100k, especially during a month where "the real battle is" according to Phil Spencer. And considering how the X1 fell out of the map at the beginning of this year, I can't imagine how badly it'll do after this holiday season...
