I don't really understand why you, as a consumer, would care about a company's hardware failure rate. Sure, that hurts their bottom line, but as long as you have a working Xbox 360, shouldn't you be happy? It's not really analogous at all to Vista, since Vista isn't "failing" so much as it's something people don't want.
- newt0311 19y agoIsn't that the very definition of failing in the marketplace?
- aston 19y agoNo, people are buying the Xbox 360.
- chaostheory 19y agoWhen I mean fail, I mean not working at all until I send it to MS tech support, they fix it, and sent it back. I have to wait 4-6 weeks every time my xbox 360 breaks; that's why I care. it's happened once before... and given what I read online it'll happen another 2-3 times
- aston 19y agoFor what it's worth, I've only seen it happen once, given the probably 10 Xbox 360's I've seen ranging from launch day to recent purchases. Clearly, your mileage will vary. Back to the real point: you want your Xbox 360, you don't want Vista.
- chaostheory 19y agogood point, you're right... I guess what I meant to say was that the same thing that plagues 360 that affects Vista's desirabilty, is quality. granted it hasn't stopped me from wanting to play 360... but in the next war I think Sony will learn from its mistake and I won't have to want MS's future crap...
