The price of the hardware inside a 360 exceeds the price of which it costs to buy on the market, almost all consoles are sold at a loss.
The money comes from the games, the average console game is more expensive than the average PC game, at least in the UK.
The Xbox360 is £280 at play.com, my last video card cost £375 alone, so hardware wise consoles are actually very cheap, way cheaper than PC's could ever be because the buisness models allow the console makers to sell the hardware and make a loss.
