Comment on Microsoft profit jumps 51 percent with record Q1 revenueparent

Are you an Xbox user? I know they take a big loss from that sector, but they have huge potential in that area. As one of the few devices that can run amazing games and feature growing amounts of non-gaming content, I think that will be very successful for them down the line.

Why buy other set top boxes if I can get all of their functionality plus amazing games at the same time?

The Xbox has been generating a yearly profit since about 2008. Still a net loss since inception, but it is turning a profit now.

I am an xbox user. Sure, there is potential but I can't put weight into potential alone.
