It was filed a mere 10 days after the North American launch yet states "Though faced with mounting consumer complaints concerning the Xbox 360, Microsoft has failed and refused to recall the defectively designed Xbox 360." I believe the quick filing of this complaint will work against the plaintiffs as 1. I don't really believe there is a general problem with the system and 2. MS never had a chance to fix it if there was before the suit was filed. Like I said to Hawkes, this lawsuit was likely contemplated by the attorneys even before the product was launched, all they needed was a slight problem in a few systems and 1 person to act as a plaintiff (in the old days many class action plaintiffs were secretaries in the law firms!)"</i><br /><br /> <img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/Gavel.jpg" /> <br /><br />Any judge will see this lawsuit for what it is, and dismiss it before it goes any further.
