Still licking its wounds from its last fiasco (circa 2003), Microsoft's X-Box console is in the news once again as reports of less than reliable consoles are being recalled from production.
The news about a certain individual trying to sue Microsoft over his X-Box 360 console constantly scratching his DVD game titles caught wind over US press last week. The document which cites that Microsoft has already discovered this flaw on their consoles as early as 2005 and practically came as far as suggesting possible solutions proved that greed should never be the business case of any enterprise (knowing that the said console is made by the world's greatest profiteering gnome-of-a-man, this was naturally, the unwritten mantra to live by...)
The flared-up (*geek) gamer, Jason Johnson, is suing Microsoft for USD 50,000 for punitive damages as he makes a case captioning the characteristic circular scratches occurring whenever he's re-orienting the console (from a horizontal to a vertical position or viz-a-viz) while the disk spins.
I mean, not to sound like the boob here Jason, but dude you need to get a day job man! Quick before they figure out that you're really a pink monster from Hannah Montana!
