Guess what kids?

Microsoft's attempt to protect us from faulty Xbox Power Cables has backfired!

What? No way! I hear you cry, but the truth is, the power cable was never the fault in the first place.

A faulty microsoft product that an 'improved' upgrade that doesn't actually fix the original problem?

Sounds like SP2 to me...

<jedi_mind_trick>Microsoft products have no bugs, nor do they have defects. You like .NET... You want to purchase XP Media Center Edition... Mac OS-X is for gay hippies... Linux is communist/terrorist/evil/insecure/expensive... The XBox's flaming chord issue isn't a bug, it's a feature!</jedi_mind_trick>

They'd tell you, "Sorry, you voided your warranty by modifying your Xbox. Get Bent ...uh, have a nice day!"

 

[ninja fetus]

most likely. Then, "Oh, don't remember to buy MS proucts over anything else because we're better than you!"
