Is that a lot for them? Doesn't seem like much.

2nd profitable quarter ever for the gaming division, i think



It's pretty good. If they keep it up, they could match Sony's best year for the PS2 possibly.

Third overall, only time they've strung two profitable quarters together.

  Good number though. Pales compared to their total turnover, but a good solid number nontheless! Congrats!



It's about 5.5% of their total operating income.



Good for MS. Their profit went up $100M since last quarter (last quarter profits for the division were $200M+ )

Do they say how much is Xbox vs Zune business or they bundle both together?

PS: If Sony improves as much they will loose only about $700M vs $800 last quarter :)
