Maybe the denial (vanity) was worse. Microsoft employees gave account details
away, but Microsoft takes no responsibility for its own people.
The biggest failure may be a hidden one (easy to hide things when the media
depends on your 'sugar').
Gamers Say Microsoft Understates Xbox Problems
,----[ Quote ]
| An insider from Electronic Arts, Inc. is saying that the failure rate
| of Microsoft's Xbox 360 gaming console is actually ten times higher than
| what Microsoft spokespeople have admitted.
|
| Game Daily BIZ, a gaming industry publication, reported that the
| anonymous source tallied that of the 300 consoles EA has received,
| 30-50 percent of them have failed.
