    "The defective Xboxs stop working after minimal usage, after unreasonably, unconscionably, unusually and unexpectedly short amounts of time," the lawsuit said.

    Microsoft had no immediate comment on the suit.
    I think MS's comment on this should be
    "Have you ever heard of a warranty, jacka$$?"

    This is why the term "doofus" comes to mind
    I sure wouldn't want to work on that guy's PC.
    If only you knew what's inside of me now,
    You wouldn't want to know me, somehow.

    Yeah this lawsuit's gonna end up with him getting nothing more than a new Xbox at most. Although I'd wager he'll get a discount coupon to some upcoming Xbox game.
