First, I'll say this disclaimer: I'm not a stock holder, employee or otherwise Microsoft "patsy". I merely seek the truth be told (if the truth is bad, so be it, if it the truth is good, so be it again--- just make sure its the truth).
Since I read several IT orientied publications weekly (a few daily) both in the traditional and online formats I just want to make sure this isn't another unfounded rumor to taint a company's reputation. (Ok, so let's PRETEND Microsoft has a reputation to begin with..lol).
If a few machines overheated, out of the 1 million that were shipped - that's not justification to drag MS through the mud. That kind of stuff happens ALL the time in mass production, world wide.
Its just law of averages- the higher the value (quantity) the greater the chance of error (overheating the cpu).
Now if its a verified problem (THOUSANDS of units) document the source when make the claim, otherwise you are just falling victim to sensationalism and that reflects bad on your personal character and sense of integrity.
PS. No I'm not an owner of an XBOX, nor do I plan to be one anytime soon.
