Somebody's triggered.

It just makes sense if your product isn't selling great to keep the options down. Of course great for us and the XB1 is a good console but unless MS think this will shift the tide (it won't) and they can sustain 3 different models and whatever bundles they decide to have, they are going to have a lot of stock stuffing the channels. If they want to drop a new bundle they will have to clear some of that stock out of the channels which will lead to more fire sales.

All in all the slim will provide a boost in sales but after the honeymoon period, it will just drop back to the level of sales pre-slim. I don't think it will sell enough to have 3 different models, but opinions hey!

MS is to decide, not forum users without any knowledge in business. Also I think that MS is releasing it because it is also a benefit for them, probably it's cheaper to produce. Anyone thinking that the slim alone will be the reason for an ongoing sale increase will be disappointed.

Because MS never in their life made a single bad mistake in their hardware business... oh wait. Never the less, this seems to be a great option for people who want to jump in on the Xbox this gen.
