So if the division is healthy and there isnt any problems then why do we have articles like this going around?

Fact is the divisions isnt as strong as the rest of their divisions. Its not showing the growth that are keeping investors happy. Now its not losing money but its absolutely below the profits of other divisions soan arguement can absolutely be made that its dragging things down. Which is why there is people talking about xbox getting sold off. You get talk like that about healthy companies if the division isnt having some problems. 

Um.. Forbes?  Really?   Pay attention to 90% of Forbes articles and you will learn why referenencing them in this conversation is futile.. 

Microsoft has been "selling" off Xbox since Xbox existed..    It's always being "rumored" because Microsoft was NEVER a hardware company. Same reason we get weekly reports they are getting rid of their Surface tablets..    Yet their earnings just showed that by the end of 2014, their Surface tablets will be their next BILLION dollar child.

If you look down you can see more links. The site or contribution isnt the question the subject matter is. Fact is new CEOs and investors are asking for changes. Couple that with how the console is performing, the market changing, the companies focus and you get people talking.
