One thing, I've never got with the Xbox profit deal is this whole planning to lose proft stuff.

I really can't imagine the board meeting

Board Member 1: So what future plans do we have?

Board Member 2: Nothing really, we already got a monopoly on the computer industry, what should we do?

Board Member 3: How about we going into the food indsutry? We can start selling MircoChips?

Board Member 1: Not a bad idea at all, but is htere much money to be mde in that?

*Board Member 2 pulls up some stats* We look to make a profit in the first couple of years, after that it's unpredictable

Board Member 1: Make a profit? No no, you got it all wrong. We are living in the dough at the moment, we need to lose money!

Board member 3: We could always go into gay porn starring Bill Gates that justin fellow keeps e-mailing for it....

Board Member 1: Someone deal with him

*Guards rush in to eliminate Board Member 3*

Board Member 1 points to the waterboy: You, you're a new board member, got any ideas?

Replacement Member: Why not start a handheld to compete with the GameBoy?

Board Member 2: That is a brilliant idea, I mean with such a monopoly on it, we would look like Apple!

Board Member 1: Even better, we could make a console to go up against Nintendo, Sony.. *Checks calender* I forget is Sega making a console today or not?

Board Member 2: I'm not quite sure sir, we can have our people on it!

Board Member 1: How much chance do you think we have of turning a profit?

Board Member 2: nintendo seems to have it's loyal fans and Sony is the "in" thing so we don't stand much of a chance.

*Eyes light up* You mean we will lose money each year?!?!

Board Member 2: I think that is about right, we can get our foot in the door, and maybe turn a profit later on.

Board Member 1: Who cares about later on, we lose money. Get to work on it now!
