You'll notice that all of the changes will be in things other than PS2 production. They aren't gonna take any money away from one of their strongest products.

MS has a record of pulling out of losing situations (like their set top box dream or the whole .NET changed). I read an article that stated many MS execs were already upset they were losing money on the consoles. If it doesn't start making a nice profit next generation I wouldn't put it past MS to just give up and move on. They are driven by quarterly reports to investors and it's hard to tell them to wait a few years to make money on this when they have many other goods to promote that make much more.
