Interesting news from MS

[devilsminion]

But the reason Sony is so huge is that they are world wide and that they had a excellent reputation in electronics. They cannot rely on there PS2 as that is not best source of income. Sure MS has investors but also has a piggy bank with over 10 billion dollars. Sony also has investors who are very discouraged at the company's position.

The fact is that the XBox has done better than they estimated so the investors can't be discouraged beacuse they didn't expect to sell as many consoles or that Live would be as big as it is. MS is still being introduced to countries like South Korea so theres many more markets to tap into.

From what I gather it seems to me that MS is right where it wants to be in fact is better than where they thought they would be. If there was a direct console war next generation I think that MS is in a better position to absorb temporary losses which will be off set by software.

I can guarentee when the nest reports come out after XMass that the XBox financial picture will be so much better. They have released alot of top notch software and those sales plus the royalties from the other software sales will really improve there financial position.
