im sorry, but if you think that microsoft is really loosing 315$ on every xbox it is selling, you are smoking something crazy. the ibm chips they used are nothing special, the harddrive is a 20 gb, if you think bill would be stupid enough to release a console and loose over 1 billion dollars on it (315$ x 3mil boxes sold = 945 million) AND continue to loose money, you need to look at their company. Anyone from business knows that you would never release a product where you loose almost as much as your MSRP, no matter how much money microsoft has, it would be a stupid business choice. I HIGHLY doubt this figure that their xbox's are costing them 715$. Agreed it is not uncommon for a console to loose money, but twice the MSRP PER UNIT is retarded. and if you beleive that figure, you are retarded too. i would guess and say they are probably loosing about 40-100$ an xbox360, which would not be uncommon, taking their total cost from 440$ to 500$.
