Bill Gates has commented recently that he would support an Xbox SpinOff. Here's a link to the entire interview on Fox Business:

In a nutshell:
"We're taking PC gaming and Xbox gaming and bringing those a lot closer together," he said. "The power of the graphics chips means you can do great games there.
"So I'm sure Satya and the team will look at that. It's up to them. We're going to have an overall gaming strategy so it's not as obvious as you might think."
After that Gates was asked if he would support newly CEO Satya Nadella, if he decided to spin-off Xbox and Gates replied "absolutely." While people have been taking the quote to heart and thinking that the beginning of the end, Gates has responded to this by stating hat he was just voicing his support for Nadella.
Now for some of you that are thinking that Xbox is going to spin-off another console from the Xbox 1, that is not the meaning of it. The real meaning of "spin-off" to which Gates is implying is when a division of a company or organization becomes an independent business. The "spun off" company takes assets, employees, intellectual property, technology, or existing products from the parent organization.
The fact that the Xbox is losing hard in the war and these comments made by Gates, doesnt surpise me. I highly doubt this would happen, but if it did happen... What do you think the outcome would be?
