Not sure I get what you expect me to find... he just made fun of the deal with Samsung implying they were giving X1 away and thus losing money... he doesn't know how much costs the TVs to Samsung, just because you pay 300$ doesn't mean it costs Samsung 300$ it would cost 100$ MS would still make money because those people are likely buying games and hopefuly a year subs to XLive. These deals happen all the time from every platform devs, not sure why people need to make it look like this is bad business.

This comment is more relevant.
You are right, these sorts of deals do go on all the time. I just didn't get why you had to bring "Sony does it too" into the other comment when that doesn't disprove what he said in any way. He was pointing out that giving away a TV with a X1 that they barely make money on will lose them money on the hardware (no matter if they bought them at bare minimum prices they would lose a lot of money) . A contradiction to what Phil said.
Now if it's a MS deal or a Best Buy deal is where he could be making a mistake
