Forums - Microsoft Discussion - XBOX : how much profit did XBOX division make in last finacial year???

Pretending that he is just some random internet spam, and that his words are meaningless is... ignorance at its finest. Webster's should include it in their next edition as an example, even.

I think he's not responding because he views it as pointless. You can choose to consider what he said, or not. Up to you. Doesn't really affect the rest of us.

So he is just another Sony fanboys spreading FUD like other.

OK. Thanks for the clarification.

Pretty much, the streak of bad numbers for the sony platforms has kicked some people into overgear. They are recycling PR from last year tho which pretty much gives them away.

GAF is feeling the effects as well, but they are so meta about it ^ ^

because i want t know if microsoft have turned a profit yet, from the 1billion$ rrod losses. is it possible that they can claw thier rrod losses back end of this fy?

 

Well you will never know that. MS didn't just flush a couple of billions on the RRoD problem. They set aside a couple of billion so the finascial results wouldn't be affected by these costs. So we will never know how much of those reserved billions that is going to be used.

No doubt that cost a lot of money but sadly we will never know how much.
