Microsoft employee fired for pointing out the obvious

[Momiji]

Oh, the irony.

According to Takahashi's report, Delaware helped unravel the following:

"Microsoft knew it had flawed machines, but it did not delay its launch because it believed the quality problems would subside over time. With each new machine, the company figured it would ride the “learning curve,” or continuously improve its production. Even though Microsoft’s leaders knew their quality wasn’t top notch, they did not ensure that resources were in place to handle returns and quickly debug bad consoles. There were plenty of warning signs, but the company chose to ignore them. The different parts of the business weren’t aligned."

What's funnier is that I just got my third free system replacement from them because the ones I have stop working so much.

And nothing of value was lost.

COMMENCING QUOTE PYRAMID CAPTAIN!

[Mr. Chomps]

How come he got fired for saying something that everybody already knew?

[Mirage]

Because companies never admit to their errors.

Do you know that if you keep telling them with every new console that you bought them a few months ago, your warrancy will never expire. xD

This guys job was to be on Microsoft's side at all times and fend off the backlash of RROD. By joining the haters he technically wasn't doing his job properly. So I can understand why he lost his job.

Totally doesn't work like that. When you buy an Xbox, the warranty is automatically activated. They know when and where your Xbox was sold, they just don't know who bought it until you register it. When it's replaced, it keeps the same warranty you already had, with a minimum of 90 (or 30? I forget) days.

You can say that all you want, but everytime you get an new xbox, and it breaks, they don't know when you bought it.

It's a new xbox, new product number, and therefore, a new buy date.

I've had 3 xboxes, and they've asked three times when I bought it, and all the other stuff, name, adress and such. Never once did they correct me. I just keep giving the dates I received those new consoles.

So unless you are really stupid and actually give your real buy date, you can keep doing it indefinitely.

But of course, you know better, right?

Then how come I've got 2 free replacements over this year? I got the first Xbox at Christmas last year and it's September now.
