I knew this thread would be entertaining. Great numbers for MS tho.

I think you have misspelled depressing. Half the posts in this thread are digs at users based on their previous expressed opinions about a brand rather than what is being mentioned or talked about in here be it pro MS or anti them users comments are being disregarded based on the author rather than the content.

As for the topic at hand though, MS is doing wonderful, every area they have success they're learning how to turn that success into profit in a fantastic way, even something so small as those advert blocks within the Win10 OS or in certain area's of the X360/X1 Menu are all ingenious ways of creating money from their customers without ever holding out a hand to the user. It's almost blueoceanesque but they've created their own artificial oceans to profit from.

Great stuff really for a well run company, can't say a bad word against how they run their business.

Some people hate those ads on things they paid a lot for =p (but sure it's added revenue)

And it's a management golden rule to find a niche where you can be blue ocean =] and no one can claim MS as a corporation doesn't know how to make money
