They spent over a billion advertising it.  it may have printed money but did it print profit? 

 

Yup. A Billion is chump change compared to how much money they get from sales of Windows licences

To use the same link as Conina did:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Vista#Sales

Over 330 million Vista licences were sold, and I have a hard time believing hte average price for a Vista licence was 3 dollars

 

What?! I asked did Kinect make a profit not Microsoft as a whole!
