Earlier numbers by Business Week may have reported that Microsoft is losing $126 on every Xbox 360 sold. That figure is now believed to be a bit higher by some. According to Insider Scoop, the world's largest software maker is losing upwards of $300 per console sold. From the article: "A high ranking friend at IBM, one that worked on the Xbox 360 chip design, tipped us regarding the real expenses involved in manufacturing the Xbox 360... 'It costs Microsoft approximately $715 to make, the manufacturing costs are still too high, another reason why they’re producing relatively small quantities.'”
Quindi al contrario, prima si diceva che perdesse 126 dollari, adesso le ultime notizie dicono circa 300.
Poco importa comunque che siano 126, 200 o 300 è cmq venduta sottoprezzo. E vale per tutte le console al lancio.
