What is the purpose of posts like this devoid of any semblance of substance?

Is it in the human condition to simply post every thought and whim regardless of how incredibly fruitless such a comment actually is? I am often dumbfounded by the human condition and I wish to understand these such posts.

Certainly this is news that seems positive, but how is your life impacted by the profits of a company of which you are a consumer? What is worthy of celebration for an outsider?

Questions require answers.

The diversification of the Microsoft Corporation will pay dividends in the future and is not harming the company in the immediate future.

I'm dumbfounded by how much you seem to care about what other people post.

I see there are some misconceptions about the quoted post.

I responded to a particular user for a reason, so I am quite surprised to see a post from someone else and will not be addressing it.

Who is Dallas?

Well I'm a shareholder...... so....... it impacts me.

Whats you excuse for being so miserable and negative about someone elses post?  it really isnt any of your concern.  But I can elaborate by saying if Microosft makes profits it enables them to develop and experiment in the sectors that they play... including gaming.  Thus Seece will benefit.  See... easy isnt it.

Well said Kowen!

OT: Absolutely brilliant numbers AGAIN by the Redmond Giant.

I answered you point for everyone.  if you cant see the link between profits and therefore the ability to innovate and experiment perhaps bringing new content and experiences fot the consumer then you dont understand anything about business or simple maths.  bye now.

I see you did not read for content.

very good numbers but why did they ship 600k 360s in a few weeks? isn't that very unusual for the first october weeks? well, for the number of console sales they have right now, not some years ago...

Knew they would twist their words -_-

I guess it's in prep for the holiday season, they're gonna be shipping 4m~ so 600k isn't that much.
