    When they boast about sales, what does it really mean?

    ok, so MS says that xbox sales have doubled since the price drop...there are(were) currently 8.6 million xbox consoles in homes of americans...


    so does this mean there now 17.2 million xboxes in households...i doubt thats the case...but thats one hell of an increase...


    am i looking at this right?

    My guess would be that this means something like sales per month or sales per week.

          yep, they somehow calculate a rate for sales of xboxes, and that doubled. There's no way any company could get 8 million sales this fast
